Loddington Hall gates, this morning.

I'm sometimes tempted to close a pair of fancy gates to a posh estate just to get a photo of my bike in front of them, but it would be just my luck that the mad lord of the manor would come at just the wrong time and shoot me for my impertinence.

I reckon the lord of the manor is more likely to send a 12 bore toting lackey

How did I miss this thread? I nearly always photograph bikes at gates (or bridges).

When I started this thread I had to triple check that there wasn't one already, as I couldn't believe that it wasn't already a 'thing'. I was quite glad to find that I was not alone in using gates as 'props', both physically and photographically.

I was in two minds (some would say that I am, always) whether this qualifies, but it's close enough. Hopefully.
