The photograph was taken in Newark on Trent (Nottinghamshire, UK) along the path of the old railway line. The railway itself closed in 1988 and since then … More Cee’s Which Way Challenge 2015: Week #34 – The Old Railway Bridge
Kicking at the stones that lie in your way, you walk the lane as it winds between freshly ploughed fields. The path is worn and uneven from the passage of countless feet, rutted and torn by tractors and cars. Bricks line the way, providing a modicum of stability – but even they are crumbling. Birdsong … More Cee’s Which Way Challenge 2015: Week #14 – The Brick Lined Path

Black and White Leach the world of colour till naught remains but stark splendour, rain drenched earth beneath lowering skies, divergent extremes sketched in a monochrome palette of humanity’s devising, disregarding the wild energy of nature’s spectrum.
