I took my dear friends Genka and Petar to Oxford for the day, a beautiful and historic university town. The weather wasn’t at its best, but we made the most of it, again making it seem like they were the only people there. The architecture was predictably ornate and resplendent, but we imagined that students at the various colleges must have a universal dress code, for they all looked the same in their chinos, loafers and scarves. Nevertheless, the poor souls have to tolerate the herds of marauding tourists trampling through their quaint city. As in London, I used my humble Nikon D40 with a variety of lenses, mostly the Tokina 11-16mm F/2.8, manually focused.
