Landscape format. Taken on 10 September 2013. A car, parked at the corner of Albion Parade, Gravesend, Kent. Albion Parade is a street of run down workshops in Gravesend, close to the River Thames. Behind the car is a stucco wall, to uts left the same, but with a doorway, then a window, boarded over. The window has a cartoon figure with a roll-up cigarette in its mouth, pethaps a spliff...the car is parked on an area with square paving and tufts of grass. The car itself is a Russian Gaz 21 Volga, a medium size saloon, quite attractive to my eyes but in need of some renovation, like the place it is parked. I don't know what the car was doing there or what happened to it: I didn't see it again. I hope it was someone's project and it has been restored to its full glory. The River Thames, which Gravesend is 'upon' is the longest river entirely in England, as the Volga is the longest river in Russia. Taken using a Nikon D7000 with a 18.0-105.0 mm f/3.5-5.6 kit lens.

A green door, wood, in poor condition with parts missing. The door is 9 vertical panels, some broken off below the door's middle, with a number of horizontal panels holding it together. The door is in a brick wall and has an ornamental arch above it, picked out in brick. It is dirty and in poor condition with corrugated metal and a square pipe to its right. Albion Parade is particularly dingy and looks derelict although it is still largely in use. It has been used for dumping and the small area in front of the door was fenced off and used for things like mattresses and tyres. I must visit soon to see what condition it is in 20 years on.,..
