Thanks Paul. This Concorde is G-BBDG, and is a permanent exhibit at Brooklands museum close to where I live.

This is the cheapest lens I have. It cost about C$25 and is composed of a magnifying glass ($5), camera mount ($20), cardboard and hockey tape.

Is that the same puppy seen in your avatar?

No it isn't... This is Oliverwho is a Llassa Apso + Poodle cross. He is a dog that was a "failed foster" The term "failed foster" is a tongue in cheek reference to a foster dog whom the foster family has adopted.

The dog on my Avatar is Panda (named for her black and white coloring) who was adopted into a "furever" home about a year or so ago...

SMC Pentax-K 30mm f/2.8 prime (approx 1980) on a Pentax K-70 APS-C DSLR.

(I should use this lens more often.)
