Lovely comments Tanja, thank you. Phone boxes still exist in remote parts of the land, they like this one and Post boxes are generally situated at minor road junctions

Roger (Grisly) ^club has replied to David Slater (Spodde… ^club

Rosalyn Hilborne

A fantastic shot Roger. I wonder if they get a mobile signal there! It must be one of the loneliest and most weather battered phone boxes in the UK :-)
HFF and a good weekend.

Roger (Grisly) ^club has replied to Rosalyn Hilborne

Thank you, Rosa, mobile signal is patchy to say the least, so quite a few of these old phone boxes still exist around the islands.

Keith Burton ^club

This is probably the best photo of a red phone box I've seen in a long while.............it really stands out in the landscape. It looks a bit "weathered" but that's unsurprising given the location and it all adds to the charm.

Well composed with beautiful light and colours Roger...............I love it.

Enjoy the rest of your day............and have an enjoyable weekend.

2 years ago.

Roger (Grisly) ^club

Excellent comments, Keith, thank you. It's the modified doors that fascinated me, my guess is the original fell foul of the wind and the two smaller one have a better chance of survival.

Doug Shepherd ^club

Terrific subject and a fine composition Roger. Love the winding road, the glimpse of the loch and the warm tones in the clouds. I remember one such telephone box on a remote junction when travelling (several times) on minor roads from the south side of Loch Ness to Lossiemouth. I wonder if is still there. Despite the mobile phone, a signal in such areas is not guaranteed.

HFF and enjoy your weekend

Roger (Grisly) ^club has replied to Doug Shepherd ^club

Nice comments Doug, thank you, I have not travelled that road since 2018, but I do vaguely remember passing one or maybe two along that road.
