The gate to the field
This big gate makes me laugh whenever I see it...why?????
Well, on one side is a huge hedge skirting the field, but on the other. .... It's completely open, the hedge ripped up, so it is fairly pointless
as you just walk round it
and it doesn't keep anything out!

The whole point of the gate being there is so people can have the pleasure of opening it and shutting it. Stop and think for a moment how stupid one would look pretending to open a gate that wasn't there.
It took brains to work that one out.

I like your logic BazzaNice shot moon - I'd love a latch like that - they're expensive.
You could get it for me as it's not doing much there !

They are very effective Phil particularly at pinching the fingers, have one on our front gate and the postman hates it.

Bazza I like your logic too.
Phil I will take my screwdriver out with me , and agree with Snapper, my Nan had one on her gate, and they really hurt if you don't pay attention
crushed fingers
Thanks, I like this shot, and I think toning the colour down worked too. Snapper I love taking shots of wood too, especially bark,I have a little folder of bark shots now to me they are all different anyway, don't post them as ... Oh look a piece of bark, another piece of bark
