Many thanks to Baz for hosting this week's challenge. His chosen theme is a little bit different, but something I think many of us have photos for. When I saw the theme I immediately thought of quite a few shots in my archive.
1) This end-wall is all that remains of Dan -Y-Coed, the birthplace of Welsh composer William Penfro Rowlands. It sits in the shadow of the Llys-Y-Fran dam.
2) I saw this ramshackle old building in the middle of nowhere while travelling through the Mojave National Preserve with Joanne.
3) I saw this old neglected farmhouse on a cold frosty winter's day, just outside the Welsh village of Llandeilo.
wow love them
ReplyDeleteThanks Heidi :-))
DeleteTerrific examples of decaying structures
ReplyDeleteThanks Anders :-))
DeleteSome lovely Welsh romantic there, especially the last one. I have never been to Wales, but Mr. Swiss toured around as an English student and loved it. second photo is very sad, but a good shot.
ReplyDeleteThanks Pat :-)) Yes, many Welsh buildings have air to them, even in a state of decay :-))
Deletehi mitch, absolutely cool pics. the decay of the last one is somewhat gorgeous if we can say so, lol
ReplyDeleteThanks Nico :-))
DeleteFantastic captures for the theme Mitch cant pic a fav love em all;)
ReplyDeleteThanks Baz :-))
DeleteHi Mitch, great shots! I love the bottom one and would love a history of that little cottage and the people who called it home. Nice touch to take it on a frosty day.
ReplyDeleteThanks Benni :-)) I'd be interested in knowing it's history, too.
DeleteI love them all, Mitch but the last one is really beautiful....
ReplyDeleteThanks Belita :-))
DeleteSomehow when I first glanced at these I knew the middle one was here (USA) out west somewhere, I love all three of these, beautiful yet sad...great textures and composition :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Danette :-))
DeleteMitch, these are a great collection of decay images. You included one ramshackled building from the USA with the photos of decay in Wales. I love the photo of the farmhouse set in the winter.
ReplyDeleteThanks Robert :-)) The 'wintery farmhouse' is a favourite of mine. I've been wanting to use it for some time, and finally got a theme that was appropriate!!
