lost grandeur

Southsea Pier is closed to the public and undergoing renovation.

Taken in colour, cropped and processed into sepia with a bit of added contrast in Picasa.

I did have quite a bit of trouble straightening this photo exactly, because of the slope of the sand and shingle beach in the foreground.

Jules, thank you. I get out and about but mostly only locally - luckily there's a lot to see around here.

It works well, Hazel and produces an evocative capture. I didn't realise the Pier is being saved in this way.
