RANDOM EXAMPLES OF STREET ART [CANON 1DS Mk3 – SIGMA ART 24-105]
Before Christmas I got the opportunity to purchase an unboxed Sony 24-105G lens but when I visited the dealer he suggested that, as I had a Canon 1DsIII as well as a Sony A7RIV [and a Metabones EF adapter], I should consider getting a Sigma 24-105mm lens.
After giving the matter some thought I decided to go with the Sigma. For various reasons I was unable to fully test the various combinations until today.

Before Christmas I got the opportunity to purchase an unboxed Sony 24-105G lens but when I visited the dealer he suggested that, as I had a Canon 1DsIII as well as a Sony A7RIV [and a Metabones EF adapter], I should consider getting a Sigma 24-105mm lens.
After giving the matter some thought I decided to go with the Sigma but for various reasons I was unable to fully test the various combinations until today. Before I begin to travel I need to decide what equipment to use and I want to travel light and limit myself to two bodies and two or three lens. I have decided that I will use the Sigma 24-105 on the Sony A7RIV, I have yet to decide what other lens to bring. I have decided that the Canon 1DsIII is way too heavy especially when paired with the Sigma 24-105.
Released in December 2007, the EOS-1Ds Mark III was the third and last of the Canon 1Ds full-frame line. When it was released, it held the title of the highest resolution full frame (35mm) dSLR, with a 21 megapixel CMOS sensor.
Compared to the Mark II, the Mark III added several new features, such as integrated sensor cleaning, Live View (an electronic viewfinder mode) and a larger 3.0″ primary colour LCD.
The EOS-1Ds line was discontinued in mid-2012 with the introduction of the EOS-1D X, a full-frame body which merged the previous EOS-1D line of high-speed professional bodies with the EOS-1Ds line.

As already mentioned the Pencil Bollards are popping up faster than I can photograph them.

ST. MARY’S CHAPEL OF EASE LOCALLY KNOWN AS THE BLACK CHURCH
Local lore says that you will summon the devil if you run around the church anticlockwise three times at midnight. I ofter wonder if anyone has ever run around the church in order to meet the devil.
St Mary’s Chapel of Ease, also known as “The Black Church”, is a former chapel in Dublin, Ireland. Now deconsecrated, it was a church of the Church of Ireland located on St Mary’s Place, Broadstone, Dublin. It is constructed from local calp limestone which takes on a dark hue when wet. This is the origin of the building’s nickname. A chapel of ease is a church building, other than a parish church, that is located within the bounds of a parish for the convenience of those who cannot conveniently reach the main church. The parish’s main church, now also deconsecrated, was St Mary’s on Mary Street.
This is a street that I have not paid much attention to until now but according to the Irish Times it is the third most exclusive street in Dublin. To the best of my knowledge there is also a Temple Road in Blackrock, County Dublin.
The area on which Temple Road was built was originally owned by Henry John Temple, the third Viscount Palmerston who left them to his step-son William Cowper Temple, first Baron Mount Temple. They were subsequently built upon with the roads named in honour of Temple, Palmerston and Cowper.
The Brazilian and Nigerian ambassadors have their official homes on the street.
