Glad to see your comments, Brian. As I noted in another response, I lived in a fairly crude farmhouse with such a roof during the 1930s, and also liked the sounds.

That looks like a decent size of home to
me, Jim. Is such a roof not really
noisy in rain or hail?

Since the image is already in the LUG gallery, I chose to
use Zone10 this
time.

Here is the uncropped image of the roofing
job, posted at a reasonably large
size for those who like to pixel
peep. It received normal adjustments in
Lightroom and Level 1
sharpening in Focus Magic.
One thing that I have noted since I
started to work with X-T2 images is that
they require smaller
adjustments than those I used with the X-E1 and 4/3
images.

Look as
much as you like, and give me your
comments.
..............................................
Where I live,
for as long as I can remember, galvanised corrugated iron rooves of one
sort or another have been very common.
As a child I used to like hearing
the drumming of rain on our roof in a storm while we underneath were
nice and dry and warm. A very comforting feeling.

And they are less of
a liability than tiled rooves.

Steeply pitched rooves like the one in
Jim's image don't drum as loudly as flat ones.

Thanks for the larger
image Jim, gives a better idea of what your new camera can do than a
small image does.
