Next Collection

North Berwick

You can go for a walk on the beach and post your letters.
This postbox is marked GR for George V which means it was installed sometime between 1910 and 1936, so it is at least 80 years old.
The Olympus lens I used is not that old, but is also still working well.

Sony ILCE-7M2
1/800s f/1.0 iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Seems like an odd place for a post box, but is so very picturesque!

Love this shot with the old post box, so peacefully, sitting on what looks like an equally old wall. Super composition V

I wish things today were made to last. Especially mundane things like post boxes. Perfect composition by the way. V

That is so neat! What a beautiful composition, wonderful detail in the brick wall and the postbox, the red stands out so well with the gray sky and grasses. VOTE!

Quaint box and nice seaside atmosphere. I was thinking like Nirvan... postcard.
Nirvan Hope23-Mar-2016 22:29
Great to see something that old still in use - handy for that seaside postcard!

I love to see post boxes in strange places
Helen Betts23-Mar-2016 19:14
That seems like a most unusual, to say nothing of inconvenient, place for a mailbox. Still, an excellent capture of it!
Jim Coffman23-Mar-2016 18:46

Martin Lamoon23-Mar-2016 18:17
