254 shades of gray.

I'm still getting used to the 'junior' title. I'm having it imprinted on my pension card. I should go to bed, really, but I'm engrossed in the variety of images and comments here. I'll get to the articles and tips tomorrow.
It's like being at school,again.
When is play time?
Here's something in shades of gray.

I'm really glad you are liking our community....because so far your images are thoughtful and intriguing.
Nice light, mood and comp here.

I am really liking this Tom. I don't know if you have found the "monthly assignments" yet, but next month's theme is "chiaroscuro" and your image is exactly the sort of thing I had in mind for that assignment (not that I could execute it as well as this)

Assignments!
What next? Homework? Detention? A note to my mother?
There is only one assignment I must complete: keep the beloved Christine happy. You know how it goes, Runmonty. When the woman is happy, everyone is happy.

Happy wife, happy life.
