History Forgotten.... by shepherdmanswife

History Forgotten....

Colwyn Bay Pier on the North Welsh coast has a fence all the way around it to stop people from going on or underneath it. Such a shame to let it get into such disrepair that it has to be demolished. Don't they realise it is our history that is being thrown away?
I find it so sad.
How sad to hear that it is going to be demolished. Great photo, I like the dramatic clouds and the colors.

What interesting layers visually, to tell this story . .. the calming sand base, the stormy clouds above, and the dynamic lines in between.

A sad story and a great shot to accompany it. Your procssing enhances the feeling of decay and demolition

A fascinating glimpse into the past... sad and mysterious. I wonder how a b&w treatment would work? Very lovely processing.

Very sad to see that you're losing this building. What a wonderful image to have posted in tribute to it.

Excellent processing

It seems that wherever one lives we find there is no respect for aged buildings. Instead of renovation it is "Tear Down, Rebuildl". Your photo is lovely and the processing is great. fav

Sad to see, nicely captured

That is a real shame.....once these buildings are torn down they only remain in people's memories and in photographs.....sometimes you get concerned citizens who start a restoration effort, and some of these are successful around here, but it does take a lot of work and dedication. I hope this becomes a catalyst for something like that.

It is sad. I know they are expensive to maintain but I hate the way today everything is measured in money terms. Good shot even if sad

Have to fav this one. My husband was born in Colwyn Bay. So sad to hear that the pier is to be demolished. David said he used to go to pantomimes there when he was a child.
