Such a beautiful old building and one can only wonder at the damage. Excellent image!

@Michael Skorulski: Thanks Michael
The guy standing on the left of the shot has got a nice white lens don´t you think.Was the building a pub ?? Shame about the beer if it was !!

@Anthony: Yes lovely white lens. It is a tea room.
what horrible! :(

My goodness. Not just a brief shower was it.
30 Apr 2008 2:17am
@Stu: No not just a shower, It started raining on the saterday morning and didn't stop until tuesday, but realy heavy rain, and the week before it had been snowing and the ground was frozen so when it rained it just ran off.
Good grief! I've alway's wanted to live by a river but I think I'm safer living on top of a hill.

@MaryB: Oh yes.
Great shot, has a photo-journalist feel to it.

@Graham Russon: Thanks
It's the shots like these that come by chance that make me keep a camera with me at all times. Good job, Alun.
30 Apr 2008 5:22am
@Eric Fry: Yes the camera is always on me, thank you.
that's a little more than 'wet'! i love the 'hairy' windows - it makes it looks as though the house is alive...
It's outstandingly beautiful, although I imagine a huge inconvenience, great shot Alun :) and I totallly agree with Eric above, I've had my best photos from totally unexpected sources !

@Lorraine: Thank you Lorraine. I took this in a hurry because they were about to close tha road, even then other roads were closed so the drive back to were we were staying took twice as long as normal.
A great documentary shot.

I like the landscape but when I saw better I realize that is a great document

@yiannis krikis: thank yiannis
Nice composition that shows us not only what happened with the house, but the effect on the surrounding area. The white windows really stick out in the dreary day of weather (along with that white lens ;-) ). But it's amazing the amount of vines that are attached to the house, particularly the dormer windows. And the green that is present given that this February

A great capture of an unpopular moment
30 Apr 2008 9:31am

You mean, this isn't the UK's answer to Venice?
30 Apr 2008 3:54pm
@Twelvebit: No, not quite.
It certainly does look a little wet there. Amazing.
30 Apr 2008 4:09pm
Wow, that's damp!
