That could be a fun one to flip to monochrome and play with contrast. I love finding something artistic in the "forgotten" and / or "unphotogenic" (sic). This is the kind of thing that would get me coming back to again and again to shoot both digital and analog.

Hi Lee

I totally agree. Unfortunately our dog (Yorkshire Terrier) while being very small is quite hard work and has to be kept on a lead. So I'm often multitasking when out on a walk. These artefacts are quite close to my home, so I'll go back without dog and take some more interesting shots without time and animal pressures.

I really appreciate your feedback and you make me think. As I hopefully progress with my photography, my eyes are starting to be 'open' to seeing things that I have walked past for years.

Good teaching is all about praising what is right, posing socratic questions/suggestiong, and letting the student proceed. I am NOT NOT NOT calling you my student, but I am saying that I will always default to kindness and a constructive approach rather than to take a demeaning, "know better" approach. There is no need to be a hateful, "small" person because there are too many already in this world.
