The Strawberry Line Trail runs (mostly) along the route of the old Strawberry Line Railway in Somerset and North Somerset, in the South West of England. The trail currently runs from Yatton to Cheddar but there is a petition to have it extended to Wells. Here you go...You can sign the petition, if you want! http://www.thestrawberryline.org.uk/index.php1 point -
After heavy rain over Priors Dean in Hampshire, the storm clears. As viewed from "The Pub with No Name."

Interesting that there is no brick portal and is carved directly out of the limestone.1 point

Haha! They are probably just having a look at all the wonderful mosses and other growth on the rocks around the tunnel entrance. Mind you, it's pretty dark in there... Scary!

Wonderful old tunnel on the Strawberry Line trail in Somerset, South West England. This is the North Portal, covered in a wonderful growth of moss, ferns and 'all sorts' of other plants. Here you go...You can sign the petition, if you want! http://www.thestrawberryline.org.uk/index.php1 point -

View of the South portal of Shute Shelve Tunnel on the Strawberry Line, where it cuts through the Mendip Hills in Somerset, SW England. Seen here with a couple of bicycle tail lights, somewhere near the other end of the tunnel. (If you go through there on a pushbike, you will definitely need to have a working set of lights. It can be very dark in the middle of the tunnel. (There are, apparently, some solar-powered lights in the tunnel - but I have never seen them working yet...)

Comment: I have about 3,000 hours of life drawing practice - only practice -in my studio, professional training connected to the analysis of graphic expressions and unspeakable pain and dedication. Betty Edwards is good, I have two of her books and agree with most of her theories. However, I do not think it is necessary to go through so complicated exercises. The time can be used more effectively. One must have a serious goal before him. All he has to do is to get rid of unhealthy opinions which alter perfect incoming information into a display of deficiencies on the paper. Modern artists do not seem capable of any sacrifices. Even some of the famous ones. An illustration from Mr. Herringer's book "Zen in the art of archery": The Master explains the principle - (it's rather difficult to get without long experience...) 1 Knock the arrow 2 Draw 3 Do not shoot, IT shoots! Unless you understand this, you have a long way to go. Excuse the preacher, it is for your own good. www.oldrichnos.com1 point
