Oh, how amazingly cute! Could maybe have done with just a little more light to lift it, but lovely nonetheless.

This is so Tolkienesque - my imaginings of the Shire.

The Thatcher's Pride: Royal Oak Inn, Withypool

My grandfather thatched this in the 1950s!!!!! He was quite an interesting and somewhat eccentric character - an atheist with a theology degree from Cambridge and a socialist intellectual. He enlisted under age as a stretcher bearer in the First World War, after which he became a life long pacifist and conscientious objector during WW2. I'm not quite sure when he turned his hand to thatching - for most of my mother's childhood at any rate. He gave up when he fell off a ladder and broke his back.

Looks like a juvenile European Robin - not that you have them in the States! Nothing like our British sparrows, which are members of the finch family. Poor little thing - hope it was ultimately ok.

Absolutely gorgeous - and so quintessentially English. I do get a slight sense of tilt - it may be perceived rather than real, but if others have the same feel it may be worth tilting slightly to the left.

Oh! wow.

An interesting scene and a really well composed photograph. I am struggling to decide if it is really 'high key'. Not voting yest - will return again later in the week.

Paul, I love this photo - it is so much better than any I have taken here, but really struggling to see it as truly high key. It certainly has a brighter light palette than you see with the eye, but still....
