jailhouse romanticism 

Strong structures... Don't know what's more threatening - the fence or the omnipresent wires and the current they're carrying.

yeah, I agree, these are strong structures, but what puzzles me most is the effect of all that threatening security stuff projected as mere silhouettes (i.e. more abstract) against this radiant and innocent sky, which somehow always stands for liberty and personal freedom ...

Hello! I'm a group administrator of Pictures of England (was England (2)). It would be great if you would add this doc to our group. Thank you!

thanks a lot, I have joined it :)

Great patterns in this photo - those hooks are quite a contrast!

yep that was definitely something that caught my eyes as well!

Fantastic picture, great title

many thanks, glad you like it!

Yay! The wild lilac are free!

exactly, they are free and I loved seeing them overgrow the fences!!

Apart from the `strong structures, great patterns etc, ´it´s the buddleia which caught my eye. If the sky stands for liberty and personal freedom, then a plant growing from a prison wall must symbolise hope.
I lived in London for years and I´m very much enjoying your view of it... and seeing the enormous changes that have taken place. :-O

You are absolutely right, that is what they are standing for: HOPE!!! And the impossibility of total control, which is a theme that adds just as much elation to me as does the hope theme.

The security is to keep lunaryuna out I reckon ;-)

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!! Well they succeeded for the place was utterly stinky :D
