Memories V IMG_0890

The fifth and last picture that invokes memories; or , possibly, feelings of another place and time. It's how I remember the countryside as a child; or rather, how I remember pictures of the coutryside when I was a child - muted colours, grey, washed-out skies, defunct hedges, long forgotten fences, wind strained trees and sheep. Though this example lacks some of the features listed, for me, it still carries the same feelings. This is what old photographs can do to your memories - to your memories of memories: they replace the bright sunshine, vibrant colours of nature and the sense of freedom of being out in the countryside.

 

And here I am, perpetuating and even exacerbating the problem.
