Fauld Crater Memorial
Photograph the vast WWII Fauld explosion crater and its simple stone memorial—contrasting water-filled basin, wooded rim and flat agricultural surroundings create strong foreground/midground layers.

No entry fee; respect memorial and private farmland. Parking limited—use quiet weekdays to avoid traffic.
