How it got to be underneath a railway line by the side of a road going under a bridge? Possibility Number 1: It became disconnected from a distant washing line and blew here on a wind. Possibility Number 2: It was thrown from a passing car. Possibility Number 3: It was thrown from a passing train. Possibility Number 4: Primark plan to open a new shop in Langley Burrell. You may be able to think of other possibilities.

A bridge carrying the railway over Kellaways has this special arch for pedestrians who would otherwise be exposed to danger on the road. Not only is the road narrow - and the bridge as well - but is a good deal lower to provide headroom. This little arch saves pedestrians from going down and then back up. Three cheers for I K Brunel and his engineers.

Oh, it's so beautiful to be alone Got the sun and trees and silence I'm in my Tytherton Kellaways home With acknowledgement to 'Laurel Canyon Home' by John Mayall (Album 'Blues from Laurel Canyon' 1968) www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8MR1u7hGFM

Nikon D2Xs at 400 ISO with an AF-S VR Zoom-Nikkor 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G lens. Lens at 80mm (equivalent to 120mm in a full frame camera). Camera in aperture priority and set at f/8. Shutter speed 1/250th.

I could understand a pair of tights, or even a brassiere going AWOL, but a dress? Whatever is the country coming to?

The population of Kellaways is very small. It's the sort of place where well-to-do folks live in quite large houses, and there aren't even that many of them. But at this site, accessed by walking along the river bank, there is a weir with a good sturdy large house behind it on the opposite side of the river. I've seen it before from the roadside and admired it. I think this is the site of the old mill, presumably a cloth mill since this area became wealthy on the wool trade. The occupants of the big house must have the sound of crashing water in their ears all the time. I don't know if that is restful or not. Anyway, I took a rare excursion into shutter-priority mode to get the water looking like a white mass. I did not have a tripod but I think I got away with it. Nikon D2Xs and Nikkor AF-S 70-300mm lens at 110mm (like 165mm for the same result with a full frame camera). 100 ISO; f/18; 1/15th.

Nikon D2Xs and Nikkor AF-S 70-300mm lens at 300mm (like 450mm for the same result with a full frame camera). 400 ISO; f/8; 1/500th.

I don't think I'm finished photographing these railings yet. Nikon D2Xs and Nikkor AF-S 70-300mm lens at 100mm (like 150mm for the same result with a full frame camera). 400 ISO; f/8; 1/320th. This lens is quite good.

Caught on brambles alongside a little-used footpath. Perhaps it became a refugee from some nearby washing line when a gale blew. I looked inside to check it was not occupied and discovered a 'Primark' label, hence the unusual precision in the title. Nikon D2Xs and Nikkor AF-S 70-300mm lens at 105mm. 400 ISO; f/6; 1/80th.

I thought these railings were interesting on their own, and then this runner hoved into view. Suddenly the picture came to life. Nikon D2Xs and Nikkor AF-S 70-300mm lens at 70mm. 400 ISO; f/8; 1/125th..
