Post Box

To some Shetland is remote but even for us residents there are parts of the Island which seem very remote. This post box is at Housetter very near the farthest North of Mainland Shetland.

Very wet and wind so not much of a walk.

When I see a post box in the middle of nowhere like this I wonder "why here?" It's a lovely photo showing he bleakness of the wild landscape

I agree with @julienne1, seems a strange place to have a post box, but one so often sees lonely phone boxes as well. Excellent composition Btw.

The road and river(?) leading out of the picture give emphasis to the loneliness

[Helge Erik Storheim]

Maybe a strange place for a letter box but it makes a great image.

@julienne1 @sgtpepper The worry of course is that eventually these remote post boxes will be taken away or collected once a week.

This certainly looks remote

There's just something about that hit of red in your photo with the landscape. Fav!

[Gayle Sears]

Love the pop of red.

[Fiona]

That looks a very lonely post box!

@lifeat60degrees Indeed, long may they live and serve their purpose.
