I found the juxtaposition of this in Santorini particularly delightful. Brand new perfectly painted buildings here and there next to ones that look like they’ve not been touched in a century. You?
Mainly, I was just trying to not fall ass over tea kettle down those paths! :) But, yes, I agree. Europe is magical for the juxtaposition of the shiny new vs. the lovely ruins.
Beautifully written and thank you for the photos. I also love decay in certain light and from just the right angle. I often wonder about the lives these buildings housed. If it was happy or full hard scrabble strife, like the picture. Thanks, peace ✌️ Packy Paules
I'm the same... the wondering of what went on and with whom... I love all the ways it could have unfolded... the endless permutations. Glad you enjoyed it, Packy!
I, too, am drawn to decay. For similar reasons.
Have you ever been to Havana, Cuba? My goodness, there is gorgeous decay there.
Have fun in Knoxville!
I haven’t. But I want to. Just to see the cars if nothing else!
Also wonderful!
I love old tree stumps. They have a story.
They surely do.
They are pictures of a life lived.
Sometimes many lives.
Hear hear!
Yes! Same same is boring boring. Love your barn photo with the moody sky.
Thanks, Angela. I randomly pulled over in the middle of nowhere to shoot that. I love it, too, and now it's my screensaver.
I remember a quote from Maurice Chevalier years ago comparing older women to a fine aged wine. Ever so much more beautiful and valuable.
I support this thinking! :)

Can I just tell you how much I love the fact that you said ass over tea kettle? I flippin love saying that.
