A beautiful and intriguing photograph. This sign would surely be an invitation in the US to enter, “private property” on the other hand would indicate keep out. Thank you for the lovely shot.
Excellent image, David. I love that you spotted this great small scene with its variety of textures and details. I loved my Nikon 50mm but switched to Fuji mirrorless and miss that baby sometimes. 😊
Thanks Jane, I like Fuji mirrorless as well, but love my Nikon film cameras. The fact that all my lenses are easily interchangeable with the digital cameras I have is a big plus. I do use a Fuji Xpro1 when I want small but my Nikon 35ti does just as well.
Footpaths & private property/land is quite a controversial and complex subject in England and Wales. Scotland has different rules (less restrictive) but basically if the
footpath is marked on a map, you are free to walk it and the landowner should not restrict access.
Well, that sounds good to me.
A beautiful, quiet study with amazing tonality and detail.
Gate detail No2.

Wonderful photography blog!
Most kind of you to say so, thank you.

I love the tonality and detail too! But, what does “Public Right of Way” mean?
Thanks, as for the question: it is a legal right for anyone to cross via a path, privately owned land without asking permission first.
You can cross paths on private land without being arrested or shot at? I could say something political about freedom and irony, but I’ll refrain.

Thanks – must admit that using one of my Nikkor 50mm lenses must take most of the credit.
Very good piece of glass, but the best photography gear of all is an inch behind the forehead.
