It's the shadows that make this simple composition so characterful - picking out the lines of the stones, of the metal and the door-frame.
When we motor westward it's always the red sandstone that strikes me first as 'different', it's almost gaudy compared with ours.

The shadows are wonderful, though most of all I am struck by the contrasts: green of paint vs green of grass, wooden door vs galvanised bin, regular patterns of bin and grid vs irregular pattern of building blocks, and pre-eminently the colour of the stone versus everything else. Simple, beautifully-observed and totally absorbing.

Superb image, lovely commentary.
An unusual one for you John. Keep it up!
Simple but effective composition
Classy capture, John, love the starkness of the red sandstone, and the shadows. Really interesting description, too. HDave :o)
Well composed John with great light and color
You should be an estate agent. Consider it SOLD. Super shot of a nice sounding place. Sylvia
Great composition. Love the write up too. You must have written the write up I read on the Internet about Gamblesby.

I grew up in Northamptonshire where our local stone was red sandstone with iron running throughit. So I appreciate the warmth of the stonework here. I like the shadows too. The facinating thing for me is that bin. Obviously a village with a great history. I wonder if any of your ancestors were in either the chapel , church or the stocks!!
Thanks for your many comments. I've been poor in returning them I know, but I have really appreciated your encouragement

Wow! A wonderfully composed shot with great shadow/light and textures in the stonework.

Quote:A great image that proves that simple is often the most effective. Lovely colour and texture. How much did it sell for?
Best wishes

Thanks Derek,
the auction is this weekend, so shall pop along and stand at the back for when the hammer goes down. Might have to get my wife to bind my hands, as is a beautiful place I would love to buy. LOL
