World photography day,. August 19th.

World photography day,. August 19th.
I chose this location for the W.P.Day,. with a theme ''old still in use today'',. here is the old inclined railway route [ removed by 1898 ] up from the 'Moss valley' when it was very busy with industrial works,. a mine, mills and numerous mill dams, but total silence now,. a track from the past but still in use today as access to many other pathways around the area.. where visitors capture the sounds and sights of the open countryside on todays digital devices

Bergfex, Nouchetdu38, Erhard Bernstein, Heide and 14 other people have particularly liked this photo

This is a gorgeous photo, and lovely area! Your composition is really wonderful here and the contrast level and general processing are just right to show off the clouds and the grasses.

I like this for World Photography Day partly because of the history. Often nature gives way to time and us people, this is pleasant to see nature overtaking past human history.

Was this from a vacation, or nearby where you live? I hope you can go there often as it looks to be very soothing and beautiful.

Oooh, this is a cracking shot David, and perfect for WPD!

I love old railway routes............they're generally quite easy walking and well maintained and go through some amazing landscape.........and this is a perfect example.

Beautifully composed with super leading lines and loads of gorgeous greenery (and a touch of browner). A nicely dramatic sky too.

Lovely words to go with the shot as well sir!

We also have old railroad tracks in my area (but not as old as this one). They are perfect for cycling, walking and horse riding.

David G Johnson club has replied to Christa1004 club
Correct Christa' yes,. it is so good that many old tracks are re-used for recreation,.. another here in UK. is the old 'Buxton' to 'Manchester' line now smooth surfaced which runs through some beautiful areas and also several tunnels with full lighting.// Thanks for your pick up.. // Dj.

IMPECCABLE et excellemment partagée. Toujours intéressant et nécessaire de ne pas oublier ce qu'il a été utilisé dans l'ancien temps surtout sil est encore utilisé à ce jour.
Un choix raisonnable en cette journée commémorative de la photographie.

A great contribution to this years WPD David. Yes, we both walk many paths and ways like this in our local countryside. One's that have almost a hidden history now, that people used to tread wearily to work and back or skip along merrily in the sun. We have no shortage of old cart-ways too and some even showing signs of our Roman heritage. All great stuff! Thanks for sharing.
