I never use Auto, I need to be able to control the camera: focus, aperture, speed, Maybe ISO on Auto. And I use that exposure compensation wheel quite a bit too. I like to get up close and the “wildlife” in Hyde Park is actually pretty tame.

An prime example of “long lens compression”.
Taken with my 300mm lens on Micro Four Thirds body, equals 600mm.
Such long focal length makes things appear much closer together than they really are. There are of course people lying longways in between the stones.

Oh yes, you’ve just reminded me, must buy some. 
I have already bought some this year but roasted them in the chestnut pan on the cooker.

I have happy memories of roasting freshly gathered chestnuts over an open fire

Beautiful!
There’s nothing like the warmth of a real fire, so “natural-feeling” too
