What interests me is the unique cleft in the bluff in the background of Photo 7. I wonder where that is?Jonathan Freitaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07862373894196924886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4202191777127653648.post-54088038044215463702020-02-05T06:38:30.173+13:002020-02-05T06:38:30.173+13:00I think there will be a number of new buildings ad...I think there will be a number of new buildings added to my collection as a result of viewing these images. I already have a good number of Eastern European buildings (summer and winter) but they are too neat and tidy. If you zoom into images 2 and 7 in those I posted, you can see how roughly constructed and maintained they are.

If you saw these images in black and white you would think what a depressing time this was, but in colour there is life and character.Mark Strachanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05988775093525037168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4202191777127653648.post-46967925682264275552020-02-04T17:27:16.276+13:002020-02-04T17:27:16.276+13:00Lovely images there, and I too love the image of t...Lovely images there, and I too love the image of the church.
