Hm, I always find old and weathered things fascinating. I cant walk past where remnants of paint and rusty metal is involved....

Am really enjoying these unusual photos and I think you should all get together and have an exhibition in both towns. I like these themed displays.....

Black paint

Loved the contrasting red bricks against the texture of the wall.

Could have gone into the maritime details section too...

When I remember rightly I have seen this shot done by psyberyeti a couple months back. I was really impressed by it and gave it a shot too.

Great detail Mcwull!

That has to be one of the most photographed houses in Caithness! It`s somehow like a magnet to me. There is so much detail to capture there, it`s decay lovers paradise :D

Now that sign surely is a cracker!!

I would believe so.

Decay on a massive scale!!! Whitby Cathedral, what a fantastic place!!!

The nearby cemetery was something else! Jaw dropping!

I am afraid that is more or less my "allyearround" state of mind [lol]

And now for something completely different...

The mystery of "H"

Found on a graveyard gate... lost and never claimed back...

That's 4/- (4 shillings) in ye olde Englishe money - about 20p now.

The crate has been deposited there - do you 'posit' it when you take it away again?:confused The English language is a mystery to me:confused

What an absolutely superb photo - most excellent dude!


Deposit 4 what?
