The Way Eye See It
In Days Of Old

In days of old
When the Knights were bold
And toilet lights were dim
You'd hear a crash
Then a splash
OH GOSH! He's fallen in!
I could not resist a little humor, albeit corny....":O)

Really "Days of old" Doctor Zhivago", may be. Beautiful photo and I love your way of processing it.

Corny humor aside, that is one gorgeous image. The light is so amazing.

Humour is good for the soul as this image is good for the eyes. Wonderful and I feel I have been taken back in time. A fantasy.

Thats not to corny My days of old Rhyme is a lot worse
But the post is superb yet again, wonderfully composed and superb lighting, the horse and carriage really add to the feel this was taken many many years ago

The days of old rhyme that comes to my mind is quite a bit more vulgar than yours. Is this a composite image or did you actually find a carriage in front of this building? Either way it's a very evocative shot.
