Black and white photo of a beach under broken fluffy white cloud. There are rocks to the left, and the beach stretches out on the right side towards a distant headland. There are few people on the beach, and the surf is rolling in, but at a distance. It is quite high contrast.

Black and white portrait format photo of an austere room lit by a beautiful pointed window. There is an oval table in the middle of the room with a wooden cross on it, and a potted palm in the corner by the window. It is serene and clean.

A rather dark portrait format black and white photo, lit by windows from the left and far end of a small chapel in a church building. A wooden pew and chair are jammed up against a stone tomb under the window, topped with an effigy of a figure, head nearest resting on a stone cushion. There is a flag between the two windows.

This black and white photo is of a rustic-looking white-rendered building, built like a bridge across the track coming from the bottom of the frame. Above the track is a sign that reads "Minstrels Gallery Tea Rooms Est 1946" with an arrow pointing to the right. To the left s a stair up to the first floor, with wooden banisters with climbing plants winding through them. Above the stair a wire hangs down, ending in a coil. Ahead under the "bridge" the track bends left, but it seems there is another track to the right.

A track uphill passing between two buildings, a wheelbarrow standing part way up. The building on the left is white-rendered; its walls are not vertical, bulging outwards slightly. The building on the right is made of varying-sized stone, likely slate. There are further buildings of the same material further up the hill, before the track passes into the trees. Black and white portrait format photo.

Looking across a small lake, a mix of still and ruffled water. On a small rocky outcrop to the right a woman stands, also reflected in the water, her arm outstretched to the left. Behind a tree near the centre, a path reaches diagonally upwards towards some further trees. In the water in front of the woman are several ducks. It is peaceful. Back and white photo.

An open gate stands at a bend in a road, beside a diamond-shaped sign that says "Passing Place". The gate leads into a field of rough pasture. Beyond is a wood and a low hill, both in shadow, with bright sun in the valley beyond, and the hills on the horizon also in shadow. Fluffy white clouds are the cause. Black and white photo.

Black and white photo showing a complex farm gateway into a gently sloping field with long summer grass, with trees to the top right. The gateway has a pull-off from the road, flanked with rustic wooden fences, a classic five-barred gate with strong diagonals, and what looks like a kissing gate for walkers. At the front left is part of what looks like a cattle grid, but filled with gravel. The scene is... bucolic!

There is a high stone wall to the right with a blank window in it.
