Yes, very good. DOF spot on. Wondering how it would have looked withiut the headstone, although in reality probably difficult not to include.

Thanks Bob. Need to hang around in the good spots over there one of these days.

A replacement entry

 

[Boots]

I really like that - can't quite put my finger on it, but it just seems to say "aged" to me.

Just the garden fence, I suppose it goes to show you don't always have to go far to get an enjoyable photo.

This is a short walk down the road from me. The first steps down to the river.
Heavily overgrown and very shaded inside, but the light creeps through the narrow gap and lights the steps, just a little bit on a gloomy day.

 

[Boots]

Very nice - good composition. Perhaps better in B&W?

Yeah I think B&W will suit it well, but the colour appealed more to me. Cheers Paul.

Leads the eye very nicely.
