Hey Steve...saw this pill box yesterday - wanted to stop and capture it but my feet were hurting too much...never mind, I've got you fabulous shot to look at!!!

Fab place for a photo. I have the same shot with my boyfriend and daughter posing on the top of this pillbox at Waxham.

Very atmospheric indeed, but also perfectly composed to rise in the viewer these atmospheric feelings...

Cheers for the correction Tom! :)

Wonderful, evocative shot, Steve ... but methinks it might be WWII, not WWI, as I don't think there was ever a threat of invasion in 1915-17 (but maybe I'm wrong ...)

Dramatic and haunting capture - well done! V

Un hommage fabuleux au passé et à la nature qui reprends ses droits...Ce cliché est absolument superbe et la lumière renversante...Gros Bravo!V!

Beautifully composed, Steve - the dark blues of the sky really offset the delicate autumn light on the grasses...certainly looks and feels atmospheric to me! V

Ghosts of battles past. You have managed to give this an almost romantic feel.

Love the colour tones in this. The landscape feels cold with just a touch of warmth in the sunlight.
Máire Uí Mhaicín26-Oct-2009 18:18
Atmospheric yes, and also historic and sobering.

Beautiful and moody capture, Vote.
