A very fine set there, Shaun. What brought you back to them?

It does have a freshness to it. And I like the composition very much, Len.

Well, there’s nothing wrong there. Sharp and clean and the exposures seem pretty good. I especially like the shot of the cottage.

It looks like they are still debating whether it would be prudent to join in or not! Another fabulous juxtaposition, and timed to perfection too. :)

As I 10 - 14 year-old I used to roam and play on the old Bexhill to London line, another victim of the dismantling of the network by the government following the ‘conclusions’ of the Beeching report. In my very young years I even travelled on the steam trains that used to go to the old West...

While it is sad to see such decay of rural residences and former farms, part of me enjoys seeing nature appearing at least to claim back part of the world. The lighting in this image is simply wonderful and the portrait framing suits the scene and those soaring trees perfectly. Simply gorgeous.
