Both taken about twenty yards apart, on the lane by the top of our track. Different days though.

That's your neighbourhood view out?! I like mine but good grief: yours is wonderful!

Any window that overlooks a wine shop automatically wins the 'best view' contest.

Although I was slightly disappointed with the lack of captivating manhole covers or fascinating paving patterns, there were without a shadow of a doubt some great entries here - including a diptych that would have done the last (aborted) theme proud ;¬>
Significant is the range; from the routine and mundane right through to the spectacular - galactic even!
Tough choice indeed, but I managed to narrow it down to the two pairs I found most captivating (coincidentally encompassing both ends of the spectrum) and almost went with a ‘joint first’ copout.
However, the winner is …… Mr ff1d1l on the basis that both photos clearly highlight the transformative role of lighting (and thereby photography itself) in adding drama to a subject and thus go that extra mile.
Special honorary mention to Marchbanks though for the documentary directness and honesty of his two images - took me right back to the farmyards I used to encounter as a lad ;¬>

Lovely theme thanks miktec. Glad you avoided a tie though - it's hard enough for ONE person to agree on the next theme! Congrats ff1d1l .
