This is a brand new gate that the local farmer has put on a footpath entrance into one of his fields. It's one of those gates that opens within a semi-circle which poses a considerable problem for a large, long Irish Wolfhound. She's getting quite good at it though!
I noticed this run down old potting shed in the back of someone's garden as I was walking through the fields today. Luckily I had my zoom with me so I was able to catch some of the detail.
A little while ago Kat posted an article about linear perspective and I found this example as I was trawling through some of my photographs. It seems to me that the eye is led by the posts to the building, and then along the wall to the archway. I'd love to tell you I saw all that through the lens as I was composing the shot but, alas, it was just one of those happy coincidences.
