HWW – Old Ireland

HWW – Old Ireland
County Mayo in Ireland has its fair share of dilapidated dwellings. I suspect because there is a lot of land to people ratio, once a place gets old or someone leaves it, it is simply left to rot. Quite unlike most places around England itself where a building like this would soon be re-built to make a new nice property again. This taken near our holiday dwelling in the hamlet of Tippe near Belmullet. The sky was grey and quite miserable and so the old fashioned mono effect here suits the mood and time I think. The wall belongs to the old slipway running into ‘Blind Harbour’. See PiP


Have a good day.

A well composed and very moody image Herb..............the vintage style mono conversion suits perfectly. Some lovely detail in the dilapidated and decaying building too.

Definitely not a "chocolate box" scene as you mentioned to Roger............but it suits the times and the weather! Nice job sir!
