Mundane Pictures of the West

[mojo pixy]

Inspired by the excellent Mundane Pictures of the North thread, I'd like to open a similar thread for The West. I live in Bristol but I get about Wales and the South West (Mundane Pictures of Wales are welcome as Wales is definitely West).

I touched nothing for this picture, I just found a good angle.

A very full New Cut.

And some nice forestry, up above Talybont.

I took this a while ago, but I love its mundane-ness. A soft day at Temple Meads Station, this view won't exist soon so enjoy it...

I thought we already had a thread like this for the West ... I shall contribute later.

I thought there ought to be, but when I searched there didn't seem to be. Shameful.

A sign, in some Somerset woodlands, pointing to a golden future if only we could heed it.

I must have a few for this. I'll be back!

This picture belongs on several threads, but I'm leaving it here because it's from Devon the other day. It could be better but we were moving at 40mph and a child was begging loudly for a go and trying to grab the camera.

No need to say where this is (in fact I'm going to stop doing that)

Devon is made of actual magic. Round about sunrise/sunset the land shines like nowhere else on earth.

Like this kind of

That's Somerset tbf.

This one is Devon, and I think you're right about that around mid-afternoon too...

 

[mojo pixy]

Let's have some Wales for balance. Endless shades of green and grey.

I like the contrast between spectacular and mundane. The mud helps.

I can't help but think how long that wood would keep my woodburner going
