Photo Fun Contest - Week 21 – “Old & Abandoned” Photography

[claudiaz]

This week we will have a look at something different altogether. Stuff we notice but don’t necessarily find pleasing to the eyes so we walk past and ignore it. However, these items sometimes present themselves as a very good subject for a great photo.

I am talking about “Old and Abandoned” items. It could be a building, a car, a ship in the harbour or any other arbitrary item lying around,….. you decide! The possibilities are endless.

---

I will leave it to your imagination,
and as always let's have good quality and creative photos.

---

Here are some examples of “Old and Abandoned” related Photos:

Hi @claudiaz,

Here's my entry:

[oizaguirres]

Una Poclain!
Hermosa excavadora de guayas, en su época espectacular maquina para excavar y realizar desazolves.
Vi tus dos fotos, me encantaron, como hombre del campo disfruto de ello, también las ruinas en un campo transmiten un mensaje de lo que algún día fue.

[rwedegis]

Thank you for your comments!

No sé si cumplo los requisitos para participar, pero por si acaso, aquí mando mi contribución

[oizaguirres]

Amigo, para mi es una estupenda foto.
Bloques de barro crudo (bahareque), dintel de madera (creo)
esa vetusta puerta semi sostenida
y la ruina interior!
¡Qué mas se puede pedir!
Un abrazo.

[juancar347]

Es un ejemplo de la arquitectura clásica de los pueblos castellanos, en realidad, heredada de las tradiciones arquitectónicas árabes, ya que durante muchos siglos estuvieron bajo su dominio. Me alegro mucho que te guste. Un fuerte abrazo

[claudiaz]

thank you, very nice entry
