Beautifully composed and lovely late light, Roger. All looking very quiet now, but it must have been busy in its time. The link to the old images was interesting too.

The light in this shot is absolutely wonderful. You've captured the whole scene in superb colour and fantastic detail. I especially like the rusty old rails.........and the stones between them, and I like the old bollards with peeling paint and rust showing through. The red lighthouse draws the eye in nicely and the red topped marker post matches well. Beautifully composed Roger.
