Medieval Alley B&W

This B&W image was taken some time ago in the medieval 'Kuyperspoort' alley (built in the 14th century), in Middelburg, Zeeland, The Netherlands.

Although inside converted to now-a-days standards, the houses are still in use as private houses.

Referring to the narrative of this one, it's my weekly entry for the Wednesday B&W challenge.

I almost expect to see someone come out in an apron and throw some
scraps into a bin SEA. This is as quaint as it gets.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

In b/W it looks really impressive Cornelius. The different textures have come out very well too. Good one for the challenge.

As excellent in B&W as it was in color Mr. C. - in fact the lack of color forces one to consider more as far as texture and composition.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Could be a place similar to some places over here old friend!...

Love the B&W conversion, which throws out some great details!..

I feel like I'm walking back through time with this fantastic shot and depth. Beautiful old buildings and all that wonderful brick work.
