Looking forward to seeing your images of items that time and the elements have worn and faded! I feel such an affinity with worn and faded, lol!

What a spectacular eye for composition and emotional impact you have!
How about I send you a mug shot of myself. There are times I feel both "worn and faded."
The most evocative one for me is Still a Light in her Eyes. I love the way the indirect light draws our eyes to the left to wonder just what is behind that wall.
Another, Great photography set

A bit of history here: I was adopted many years ago by Chief Jimmy George and his wife, Lydia, of the Killer Whale Clan of Tlingits. I was honored to be given the name of a Tlingit ancestor, NaaHooWoo, his English name, Billy Jones, who weathered the bombardment of his town of Angoon, Alaska in October 1882.

OK....you asked for it! In September I snapped a few pictures at the Silkeborg Museum located in Denmark. Wasn't sure if I would ever use the pictures, but your challenge of Weathered.....worn & faded......has opened the door for me to share "Him"! I will also add some other photos to soften the 1st couple of shots. Bob

Thank you for the compliment!
I really like the wizened muzzle on the dog and what a view the folks who used that building in the first photo had of the beautiful mountains!

That fits the bill around here, too!
