After many trips and nearly 2 years of trying Jonathan and I have finally ticked of another one of our sites, on a long list.
Below is a shot we took while messing around (in -6 temperatures), just for fun, the folly is lit by the full moon coming through the tree which was casting shadows onto the walls, giving that extra spooky feel.
Racton Folly:The tower was built around 1772 for the nearby 1,750 acre Stansted Estate, probably as a summer house although it is shown on maps as a monument. It consists of a two storey triangular structure with three corner towers attached, from this rises a large tapering central tower which has three floors to it, this originally had a conical roof. The central tower, as well as the three corner structures, were also castellated at one time, although this feature like all the interior floors, has now disappeared. Some say that its original purpose was as summer house however, an alternative possibility is that it was built by the then owner so that he could see his trading ships berth at Emsworth, then a major port. Either way, it perhaps qualifies today more as a curiosity than a folly.

Here are some more images from my Tuesday night walk about in the snow, they were all taken at night and i have edited the orange street lighting out of them.
not what i would call fantastic photos but i thought i would share none the less.
Heres hoping for more snow at the weekend
Enjoy
As any one who visits my site regularly, you will know im not one for portraits or people in my photos, but these 2 young ladies were having so much fun for me they seemed to capture one of the many joys that snow can bring, as usual there were “other” young females in the street that had to much to drink could barley stand up let along walk in the snow with high heels on i did laugh when she fell over (oooops) however these 2 young lasses were what i would call nice or normal people. i did promise to put the pics up so they could see them…. if you still want copies email me wayne@waynesphotos.co.uk
Should i steer clear of people from now on?… or should i put more people in my photos?
Feedback please….
This is one a a number of pictures i took whilst out in the snow tonight a photo of St. Richard of Chichester with snow on him plus his shadow on the wall with snow falling. i used some fill in flash and it turned the snow blue!

Whilst on my travels through Chichester this evening taking random snowy pictures, i came across this cup and thought it was quiet quirky, sometimes we wander along so fast we just dont notice the little things in life….

Wel as you know my site has been up a while now and after some mathmatics and removing every time i log in today i have had 1000 hits on my website from 25 diferent countries which is above average according to Google… not bad for a 3 month old site.
Thank you to all that have visited and had a look and please come back also feel free to leave your comments under each post you can remain annonymous if you wish just make up an email address.
Heres some interesting facts for you … or maybe not….
when searching Google World Wide for “waynes photos” Ranked 2nd of about 42 million results
when searching Google uk for “waynes photos” Ranked 1st from 400,000 results
The Bussiest single day was 2nd july with 55 hits
The single most popular post overall has been The London Architecture Poll with 46 visits but only 15 votes 
The average page view is 2.71 pages per visit, spending 3 minutes 17 seconds viewing those pages.
In reality there are a high number of single page visits staying for 10 seconds or less, but here have been a number of visitors how have stayed and given the site a thourough read through thanks you to mondays visitor who stayed for 29 minutes reading 12 pages from the Uk. 
55% of people visiting the site return for another look…
33% of visitors arrived from google or other search engines.
1 person did a search for Jonathan Fridlington (my best mate and fellow photographer) skipped 9 results for him and clicked on my site, the odd thing is i that they never actaully clicked on his site at all that day… how bizzare?
Overall there were visits from 25 countries around the globe in order of most hits first here are the stats
The 25th Country or region is … Unknown (ip region not set) so it could have come from anywhere
There are hundreds more stats i could bore you with but i wont, but i will tell you that i can even tell the screen resoloution of the pcs or handheld devices the website is viewed on and i will be using this in future to maximise the size of the photos i put up, in short if you cant see the whole picture your in the minority and its time to buy a bigger screen!
Here is an image with a descriptionclick on it, if you cant see it all (inc description) then your screen is set below average resoloution (if you need help call me) shame about the lens flare in this picture
if your thinking of upgrading a screen or anything pc Novatech for the best prices and most excellent customer service and after sales i have recived in a long time.
hope i havent sent you to sleep, come back soon as i have some more images to post this week.

Manor road Garage was built in the 1930′s and was used until the late 50s/early 60′s. it was run by a gentleman called Mr. Lillywhite who seemed to have dabbled in any business he could from the property, he had steam rollers for road making, there was even a car still on the ramps, wonder who didnt get thier car back? He also had a small nursery behind the garage, which he sold to build house’s on in the 50′s.
The Buliding is grade 2 listed and is due to be turned into flats re-using the existing facade which will be trasnformed to its former glory inculding a full refurb of all 4 pumps aparently the orginal glass bowls for the top of the pumps were inside the building.
which is nice….
As always accompanied by my good friend Jonathan who has more images in his gallery Forgotten Britain
Enjoy
