Ah, the hills, the sea breeze and the sound of sheep bleating in the distance.

I was walking down this track to the point above this farm (where I took a quick snap) and was then looking forward to the 'downhill stretch' when around the corner comes a platoon of squaddies, full pack at full tilt and sweating like driven mules.

Proud to see that they didn't waver and kept on pluggin away up the hill. Then there's me, anorak, os map and a thermos. One of those 'when worlds collide' moments.

I suspect that this farm hasn't changed in centuries.

My friend you found a treasure in this one. I am glad you did it in b%w. Anything else would have been a crime.

A great find and shot of this old farm. Looks wonderful captured in b/w, nice contrasts. A nice view of the landscape as well. Good work.

Think about the photo before and after, never during. The secret is to take your time. You mustn't go too fast. The subject must forget about you. Then, however, you must be very quick. Henri Cartier-Bresson

What a nice B/W shot of the farm. Sort of remind me of the Amish farms here that don't use electricity.

I love that this is in black and white. It accentuates the old time feel to this farm.

When I first saw this it really made me wonder how old this place was! There is so much time built up in these building and your image really bring that out! B&W was a good choice.
