Anne's take here was that the people were abandoning the building. She was pleased with the framing of the people and the angles of the building.
Sonia liked this one with its warm colours and the fact that it filled the frame.

Gillian chose Athol's picture of the Collecting House for Edinburgh's first water supply.
The picture Athol was most pleased with was of cars, including a Ferrari, rusting away in a front garden.

Definitely abandoned, Bob was pleased with this picture, with its interesting shapes.
Anne liked this one from Bob, with the tree coming out of the building and the Church in the background.

Both of these pictures from Brian were taken in Berwick upon Tweed. Brian chose his "Old Lifeboat Ramp", which he felt was very much on topic.
Martin also admired the lifeboat ramp, saying it was a powerful image, but also liked this shot, with the railings and brand new lock.

Marthe chose this one from Fiona, with really good textures and lots of interest.
Fiona herself liked the way the lines of the mown grass led the eye towards the gateway and abandoned trolley of apples.GL

An appealing picture admired by all, including Gillian herself and Sandra. Gillian felt the cat seemed to be saying "Please don't abandon me".
Gillian chose Irene's picture of a building being demolished.
