That's lovely Helen. I love finding old doors and gateways when I'm out and about. Colour works best I reckon.

Some lateral thinking going on for this one. Inspired by two days of wind (of the weather variety 
) I tried to recreate the liquid effect of barley rippling in the breeze.
It's the first time out since lockdown with full kit and tripod and I was surprised to find myself struggling with inspiration / composition etc.. it may take a while to get back to normal!

That's a cracking shot Helen. Nicely framed and exposed to capture the movement and lovely light.

Thanks for the great comments folks.. have to say after struggling for quite a while to find the right composition and inspiration I was really pleased with the result. At least got my motivation back on track
Thanks #Shugpug - I totally agree about the modern fixtures but wasn't going to clone - had another door I could have shot without said light switch - doh!

Thought about heading out to a couple of local places for landscapes... such as Combs.. or Stoven.. . However, last night picked up this very handy little lady. As she is a favourite household item I thought I would give her a showcase. Excuse my limited ability for indoor shots.

Just catching up!!
Music - I didn't work out out the connection, but I'm not great at solving cryptic puzzles!!
Colourful - Great burst of colour, amazing how uniform nature is. My plant keeping skills are shocking so you won't see much "flora and fauna" from me!!
Something Old - Love the transition in the locking methods telling the story of how its changed, certainly looks a good candidate for B&W too.
Liquid - I can definitely see the movement, it works well, possibly the barley stands on its own as an image without the sky.
Very artistic.
A Household Item - Couldn't have a sad face opening wine!! Great control of the depth of field and the lighting is spot.
