Just a wee bit of colour in a b&w world.

Three nice images Dave. I'm not a big fan of selective color so the middle one has little appeal but that third one is wonderful. The black/white contrast in that shed is vivid.

the spot of color is nice, but i that third image... love the dark tones of the house against the deserted landscape.

Yes, Dave, I imagine you won't find many fans of colour popping around here, but the other two are excellent. I especially like the last. It's like a still from an art-house movie, with a certain intrigue to it. You know things are not going to end well for someone, especially the guy who goes around painting flowers red, when everyone knows they should be black!

Similar as Brian here. I often think the ability of being able to isolate colour is often more appealing than the results. The last image though is a cracker Dave, superb.

Thanks for the feedback folks, much appreciated.
Fair enough, I get the message! Blame it on the fact I am a gardener; the church looked so much better in b&w but I did like the colour in the roses.

Well actually I have it on good authority that those roses were originally white but some vandal painted them red! 
Love the tones in the lock, Dave. And the last image is fabulous too. But that's not Dungeness is it?

Thank you Pete.
Not Dungeness, Rye Harbour. That is the mouth of the river Rother in the 3rd pic.

In all the years I've never walked down there even though I've been to Rye dozens of times.

The walk down is boring; dead flat road through an industrial estate. The shoreline area is a nature reserve now, has a few interesting things to see, good for birdwatching.
