I found these slides of York Minster in a drawer the 

other day - they've been there since 1991.

 

Shot by a Minolta CLE with a 15mm CV lens.

 

  "by" is intentional - all I did was put the camera on 

a table or window ledge, set the aperture and get out 

of the way - the CLE did the rest all by itself.

 

The blurred spots are people walking past the camera, 

not ghosts of long dead archbishops:

Hi Douglas,

As simple as the routine may sound, you actually have some very fine
interiors with perfect vertical lines in both horizontal and vertical
compositions. Well done. This simple correct vertical lines make the
photographs a pleasure to look at. Thanks.
