After jak's question about my 'windows' submission this week, I thought I would post the huts in context. This is a few hundred yards from our front door. It isn't the strip featured in 'windows', (which is about the same distance in the other direction), but I didn't have any of those that showed the proximity to the sea. This area is 'famous' for these Victorian huts. Funny how you stop seeing things when they are right in front of you all the time. This is a good example of that. You get a bit sick of it because in town there are endless photos, postcards, paintings, prints, posters etc etc etc of this sort of scene... and not all of the best taste. The huts are pretty though, no doubt. And, no doubt, I will appreciate them more when I am no longer here.
