Panel Game

After doing the door I set to work on the porch. Someone had seen fit to stick sheets of ugly black painted hardboard on the, admittedly tatty, porch sides. Removing it revealed some quite nice paneling that just needs stripping and a bit of TLC. Anyway it already looks much nicer than before - but it couldn't look any worse. People can be such rough-arsed philistines.
In spite of the barrel distortion at the wide end and a few other minor quirks I really like this little Olympus - and its big brother, the XZ2, is equally impressive in other ways. My crap Nikon P7000 has been given to my bro on a permanent apro basis.
