Well I have finally done it and decided to show my work.
Thanks to Alan who helped me set up my gallery with you.
I hope you like the few shots posted, and am looking forward to your comments.

Points of View Exhibition – British Library
Jan 9th
There is a free exhibition at The British Library – Euston Road, not far from Kings Cross/St Pancras – about the development of photography in the 19th and early 20th centuries. The exhibition runs until 7th March and is worth a look – it will take you about an hour to see. The British Library is also worth seeing if you have not been before.
