RE: The Old Dog Presents: The Mundane as Art Round 12... Door Handles And Knobs. 20 Steem in Prizes!

in #mundaneart6 years ago

It was hard to pick, but since the rules say you can only enter one, here is mine! It is on an old barn that is down the road from me here in Wisconsin. Most of the old barns around here are falling down or being torn down because they are no longer being used by farmers.

Very nice. Love it!

You always have the best photos on file and find the coolest stuff!

Thanks! Jim and I spent a lot of days together with no other goal than to take photos. I think we both knew we had to collect as many memories as we could while there was still time.

That's such a sweet hobby to do together. Maybe I should see if John would be interested in learning how to take photos. I have an older Coolpix which would be great to start on. Our iPhones aren't good for photos in my opinion.

We had fun...even though we took photos very differently! I'm not good with taking pictures with my phone, but I keep trying!

I love this one @melinda010100. The rust, the wood and especially the angle.

My partner and I also love taking photographs together. In fact, it was he yesterday who reminded me about the handles and knobs contest. He was busy clicking away and I noticed what he was shooting and then remembered the contest. He's not on Steemit but is enjoying the extra opportunities to get out and about and take photographs. 😊

Any excuse to have a photo day! I miss having someone to take photos with! Remember to enjoy each minute!

I do really enjoy it @melinda010100 and thanks for the reminder. I am very aware that time may not be as long as we'd like. 😊

The only thing I would really like in life, that I don't already have, is for John to be able to retire early so we could do more stuff like this together. It is so much more fun to have someone to share it with and I'm very fortunate that I do.

John is not interested in Steemit or cryptocurrency but he likes exploring and taking photographs so it's great fun to share that bit of it! 😊

You are a wise woman, my friend! Jim had his own interests and spending time online was not one of them, either. Keep on Steemin and when it goes back up I hope he can retire early!

That would be amazing @melinda010100. I can't quite believe that that will ever happen but some people around here seem sure it will really take off, so why not?

Retirement is always a bit tricky though is't it? how much does one actually need? Whenever I try and answer that question I always start with the income we have now which just wouldn't be feasible. Then I lose interest because, how does anyone know that really? 😁

Irrespective it would probably be a good idea to keep blogging away, just in case! 😍
