Hello ,
I've just found the interior photo of the Rhos on Sea oldest church , my long suffering wife is the 'model' showing the small size.
I found the other small and/or old houses throughout the world very interesting, I remember going to the Jerusalem pub on one of the wettest days of the year a few years ago.
All the best from Neale.

Wow, everyone has done such beautiful carpentry work.

It seems to me that rather than being overlooked, the house remains because it is cherished.

Here it is truely left behind.

Another great video from Anna, enhanced, as always, by good music.

Intelligent and neat Anna

Great work Michael!

This "eyesore" was in much need of "structural adjustment", therefore I placed it into Outer Mongolia

Thank you Michael. I am glad to see you are back at work. I was beginning to wonder about you.

Re: Challenge 744: The house that got left behind
This weeks challenge was not one of Steve's most challenging. Not exactly brain surgery but, is it just my impression, or has this attracted an unusually high standard of entries?

I, for one, am very impressed by what I have seen this week. For the most part very simple but beautifully executed.

Hats off to everyone.

Re: Challenge 744: The house that got left behind
Extreme kitsch from DavidMac, with some rather curious perspectives. Wouldn’t that path in front of the building look better if it curved over the hillside? I like the ivy on the side wall. The second entry had me gasping in admiration: I stared at this for ages, trying to work out how you’d managed to twist the perspectives with such seamless skill. Truly astonishing, David, and one of the most memorable images this Forum has ever seen.

A fine assembly of small buildings from Ant Snell, neatly compiled into a single bizarre, Harry Potter-like street. What an extraordinary selection of buildings!

A toyland scene from Frank, perfectly integrated into the scene - cutting around that drooping plant must have taken a while. The gnomes at the door and window really add a lot to the overall effect. Charming.

A riverside location from lwc, neatly turned into a vintage film. You’ve got that Kodachrome warmth just right, Loyd - now all you need to do is separate the balcony into a separate layer so you can get some parallax movement in there. I like the location in the second entry: but I think the proximity of that front wall may make it hard to get in. A cute setting in the third entry, with a slightly curious guest appearance from Road Runner.

Ben Boardman has moved the building to Elm Hill, a 16th century street just around the corner in Norwich - where it slots neatly into place. A fine choice of location, Ben, far better than its original car park placement; I like the hand tinted quality to the image.

Beautiful work from Josephine Harvatt, the building blending perfectly into its new surroundings: and congratulations on resisting the temptation to up the contrast. Perfect.

Very fine work from Ben Mills, whose building fits seamlessly into its new surroundings. Amazing how much difference it makes tucking it behind those flowers at the bottom: and the perspective is a very good fit. Excellent work.

A trip to Amsterdam from Vibeke, with the building nestling neatly into the terrace of tall houses. Almost as if it’s hiding in a crowd… nicely done.

Two small houses abut in tooquilos's entry, with a new front door and added ivy. I love the building house with teary eyes in the animated version, the falling debris and the river trip before the insertion into the new location: I wonder, would it have been possible to split the house into front and side so as to adjust the angles as it raises and lowers? And that’s a splendid interpretation of the interior.

A charming winter scene from Linda Eckert, the added snow on the roof really bringing all the elements together. Very convincing - and nicely done. The sledge in the foreground adds a much-needed human element.

I think the thing that impresses me most about Mariner's entry is the lighting: the bright side wall, the shadows on the roof and on the building it abuts, blending it perfectly into its surroundings. Excellent.

An otherworldly setting from srawland, the house now relocated to - Mars? Nevada? A fine setting, although I’d query your choice of the location of the horizon.

I see michael sinclair is back on form, blowing things up once again. Eyesore? Really? I know your taste in modern art doesn’t match mine, but I thought you’d appreciate a fine old building. Good destruction, but I’m not sure the whole man should compress as he presses the plunger.

Fine work this week. For those of you who have not yet seen it, please see here for some truly sad news.
