Trying out the New Lens in Central PA

The weekend before my surgery I went with Diana to a street festival in a small town in central Pennsylvania.  I loved the architectural details on the buildings in the town so it was fun to be able to zoom in and capture some of the details I wouldn't have been able to capture before.

Pretty great pretty grate.

Something about real shutters always catches my eye.

I'd imagine this stained glass is far prettier from the inside with the sun streaming through.

A nice contrast of colors.

This amount of carved detail amazed me. It spanned the length of the building and was on all floors from the second up to the top.

Again, the colors and subtle details caught my eye.

Ok,nothing subtle here.  I've worked as a painter.  May I just say I am exceedingly glad I never had to scrape and paint something like this with all the color changes.  I certainly appreciate whoever did it though.
