I am away from home until the 17th and may not get to update so I'm planning ahead. I'm going to put up a couple of different 'mini-series'. I apologise if I don't get round to rsponding to comments while I am away. I will do my best.
This is a set of pictures I took in the summer on the Holy Island of Lindesfarne. I went up there for the sunset (they have a West coast I can reach easier than Britains west coast!) but I also got some beautiful shots throughout the course of the summers day.
I love the texture and the unique patters a nice bit of peeling paint can offer and this made a nice subject for destauration.
I welcome all constructive comments, compliments and criticisms. I am here to learn. the fastest way for me to learn is for you to be really unforgiving and articulate in your criticism =D)
If you don't have time to comment don't forget to give a star rating as you pass through!

Interesting perspective, but I think the boat to the left takes away from the shot a bit! Not alot you can do about that though!

I love weathered wood. It makes for very interesting photography.

A great example of entropy.

I really love the raw tones from the peeling paint and the perspective/angle is just great!

Perfect title on this one. Great shot, but I also agree with DaveB and pLusOne, dropping the boat to the left would have made it even better.

Hi everyone,
Thanks for your comments. I'm going to take a stand on this one though. I really like that boat in the corner. I think it adds context and lends the impression of being in a boat graveyard....
Maybe its just me though. Oh well!
