The story would only bore you, and you probably wouldn't believe it anyway, but I spent a large part of Saturday travelling around (and hanging around) car hire companies across mid-Cornwall when I should have been enjoying a woodland walk with the dogs. But the tile-hung wall opposite Europcar in Truro (which is in Carclew Street, not Lemon Street, whatever they might tell you) at least makes an interesting background photo, imho. Although not as interesting as the woods might have been :-(

Beautiful weathering on the tiles (slate?) but, I can feel your frustration at not being in a better place. Still, a good shot, Si.

Thank you all. Seen through the eyes of boredom these slates took on a beauty I could so easily have missed :-)

hello simon :)

the first moment i saw this photo, it reminded me of pink floyd :) the wall album... :D

quite interesting wallpaper, it looks different and it's certainly better than the usual tiled images.. i like this one :) and it's not boring, there are lots of shades and patterns!

"the wall was to high as you can see.. no matter how he tried he could not break free.." well, you certainly broke free and became an excellent photographer :) this one and that electric spaghetti were quite different from your other shots.. i like this change :D

thank you for sharing this one with us.. and have a great day :o)

Simon,
the picture is very nice and makes a good desktop wallpaper. I agree however that a walk in forest WITH THE DOGS [sic!] would be far more interesting LOL
Do not take me too seriously - I am simply all the time in love with my sweet doggie LOL
Do you know that my Boris waits most patiently as I am taking photographs, especially in the night and God take care for any stray cats, dogs or humans that cross my way at a time like that ?!

This leaves me with the impression of an unstitched pano of the earth taken from space, with each tile depicting the land masses and weather patterns. A keen eye and very nice photograph indeed imo. Well done!
