End of the line, taken for 'The Sunday Challenge': "Finale". Well I started here in October 2013, it's been a great journey, but sadly has now come to an end. Thanks to all here for making it a special place, and in particular to Wendi, Chris and Fraggle for doing such a splendid job of running it.

Taken for 'The Sunday Challenge': "Wings" This is the boating lake at the local park, which seems to be a good fishing spot for the gulls, they also like to steal the bread from the ducks.

Taken for 'The Sunday Challenge': "Smell" This is the local coffee roasting plant, sadly they weren't roasting when I took the image, but when they do the smell is wonderful and drifts for a very long way around the area. Two years ago to the day before this photo was taken the first cases of covid in our town were recorded in staff at the plant who were visiting from Italy.

Taken for 'The Sunday Challenge': "elements" When I took this I was thinking 'air' was one of the elements, the air having blown the wood out of the earth seemed perfect, when I checked the brief before posting I saw that air isn't one of the Chinese elements; so it's just wood and earth interacting now . . .

Taken for 'The Sunday Challenge': "A" when I posted my hastily snapped AA batteries shot I forgot that I'd already taken this image for the challenge, so here it is in NTSC. This is an old AA (Automobile Association) roadside call box, number 121, rehomed from its original location in Dotterel to outside the AA HQ building in Basingstoke.

Taken for 'The Sunday Challenge': "A" Bit last minute this one, I was going to post different image, but on re-reading the brief decided it didn't really fit, so had a quick scout around for something 'A' and espied these . . . [Edit: Now with added PiP of the picture I took for the challenge, but forgot about. Doh!]
