Something to look at where ever the eye roams. Very impressive.

A fine image. I'd love to come across a scene like this.
Best wishes,

Lovely image; very skilfully composed to convey a sense of tranquility as well as abandonment perfectly.

The B&W is my favourite - it just seems to work better for me - lovely shot

WRT the B&W image. It works very well with subject matter centre, left and right of the image. No sign of anything man made in the far distance comes across as nothing of further interest thus keeping the eyes looking at the main subject which is well balanced by the buildings either side further into the image.

Very good composition and well photographed.

Best regards

Yes, the B&W is a better version with more invitation to explore what's there - which is quite a lot
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

Thank you all for your comparison comments,personally I prefer the Mono version, indeed I am now mostly producing and conceiving shots with a view to processing in B&W

Well I'm going against the grain and saying colour!

Lovely scene and the composition is spot on! Very nice
