open gate

I went to St Cross in search of rust, the theme for our monthly U3A photography group meeting.

Despite most of the buildings being medieval, I found only this barely rusty gate into the Master's garden.

Love this - such definition and great contrast of the wood and metal.

It must have been better metal than we get now Hazel. Lovely capture.

Lovely clear shot hazel.

[Peter H]

They don't make 'em like that any more! Nice observation.

[Pat Knowles]

The monks are too attentive to detail, no rust on their patch!

Nice shot of rusty textures

[Catherine]

Great detail and I really like the shadows behind.

[Richard Hickey]

Cool picture.

[Lois]

Lovely rusty shot!

Really nice lines here, Hazel..I like how the front gate has that diagonal but the background on the right goes the other way..and the lines in the ceiling adds value too. so pretty

@granagringa

Interesting critique, thank you. The gate opens from the cloister into the garden at the almshouses and the lines going the other way are the uprights of the cloister.

Lovely point of focus, tones and textures the lighter background really bring out the detail Hazel well spotted:)
