Thank you kindly Sir :)
By way of contrast to the last topic, apposite at the end of the year, I choose "Renaissance" as the topic for the start of this new year.

Good wishes to all!

2. Remains of The Day

Not a picture I'd hang on my wall without a lot of post-processing, but it's the second best fit to the theme and it has the potential to be a gorgeously Gothic image with a few hours of 'shopping. Unfortunately the rules do not permit that. I'd be interested in a commentary by the photographer - obviously after the voting closes.


I'm happy to oblige, JJ.

Essentially, it was the end of a journey back to Chatham from Wigan, a couple of weeks before Christmas. I'd had the idea of capturing the melting snow for the competition, as it was decaying in a way.

When we arrived in the car park late in the afternoon just after the sun had dipped beyond the trees, I noticed where the snow had been piled to one side, crusty, dirty and full of bits of dead plant. I got down low with the compact camera looking up at the pile (barely 30cm high), hoping to throw the background out of focus. I fired off a couple of shots, and this was the best shot after a bit of the allowed tweaking.
