SPF: Vacation
Photo courtesy of Morguefile The family were silent as they trudged around in the forest. It was almost as if they were speechless because of the beauty they found themselves surrounded in.

Sunday photo fiction: The unusual place
Photo courtesy of Pixabay.com Tony knew this place as the train graveyard. The place where they bought railway carriages to die.

SPF: Empty streets

SPF: Perfection
Photo courtesy of Morguefile Melissa looked down at the keys resting in her palm before looking up again at the cottage. Was she dreaming again?

SPF: Being cool
