It had to be taken , I turned round and the low sun was reflecting off of the paved path from the lychgate to the church door . This is Fetcham church and yes the wet paving was glaring light from the sun's light and I could see the potential for the shot . One moment I see the pathway leading to the lychgate and the next moment I see a towering monolith , I leave you to make your mind up .
However , as church paths go , this is very new because the original was nicked overnight one November night back in 2017 - what sort of tow-rags would do that , I will leave that to your imagination !!
The link below gives the news report back at the time .

There's an abstract shot of this makeshift jetty elsewhere in my gallery. It shows only the jetty and reflection of the sky, without reference to anything else. Take peek if you're interested......
Last Suday's chase of NYS&W train CL-X provided me with a "1st timer" shot as they head down the ex DL&W Cincinatus Branch. A line that was gone before I was born, the Susquehanna re installed a portion of it east out of Cortland, NY to serve their largest customer, Suite Coat. Within the last three years, CWR was added making this forgotten branch line as good as many mainlines.
I'm sure many other cities have it too, but Hong Kong is quite impressive... parks, subway, shopping malls, schools, trains, many many streets are equipped with tactile paving for blind or visually impaired persons... this one in Shatin is just a tiny sample of a huge network of these "truncated domes" as they are called... I think.....

Stephen B Whatley painted this surreal watercolour, during three days in June 1983 ( when he was 17) in the garden of his childhood home in Kesgrave, Suffolk, UK; where he lived 1970-1983. He was nearing the end of his first art course at Ipswich School of Art (1981-1983).
Fascinated by surrealism at this time, he liked the idea of presenting two views of the garden in one. He positioned a long mirror against one of the three little wooden benches that surrounded the pond, a little of which can be seen to the right of the mirror. Cross-legged on the grass, in the summer sun, the mirror captures the fir trees, fence & bush that were behind him. This garden was a haven of peace and happiness for Stephen, all through his childhood - and the daisy, scarlet pimpernel and silver birch leaf, placed below, were from this garden, pressed during that month of June 1983.

Top down angle thanks to an office window, though sadly just a phonecam shot, hence the potato quality ;)
