I like the urban grot feel to this. I also prefer the first version over the crop.
I like the first one better it gives more context to the gate
Gate(d) - as the others have said the first image tells more of a story, nice find.
Well seen, well captured, I'm with the others, the first gives it context
I'm with the first one Les. That looks so depressing; well found
Thanks all, comments are much appreciated. I might try and set a goal of meeting as many of the themes as possible with images taken around the town.
