Beautiful imagery – both the literal image and the perfectly chosen words.
Thanks Nancy! This old building is from 1696 and was used for food storage on a farm in rural Sweden. I’m always fascinated by things of the past, kinda feel the vibes of life long ago. Weird, I know.
Nope, I totally get it. I just love stumbling upon ruins of old homes and buildings. It’s like you can feel the souls of all those that once occupied the (now crumbled) walls…
That’s how I feel too. Lots of emotions pasted on the walls, whether standing or not…
Not weird at all. I love the way your new format enhances your photos…or is it the other way round? 😉
Thanks for the nice feedback…I was tired of the old format and worked to customize the new one, which was not too difficult 🙂
If walls could talk. 😉
I’d love to hear!
solid timbers, insulating sod, looks beautiful too 🙂
…and it has lasted for quite some time 🙂
which is a sign of good building 🙂
Love the picture and your words tie the past, present and future together nicely. I love old buildings and love walking on the ground I know my ancestors walked on. Hugs
Thanks Mag! I love exploring our history as well. Loved this particular building too, very old and beautiful.
lots of lessons to be learned from the hand hewn construction and natural sod roofed insulation, a magnificent Haiku and photo pairing Tiny.
Thank you, I’m happy you enjoyed it. I love the construction as well, it has seen over 300 years and is still standing proud.
Your photo is stunning.
It’s a food shed originally from Varmland ca. 1696.
Life lessons put to fruitful use in this lyrical and classic pair. Great work.
Thank you Mike – I’m happy you enjoyed it.
Gorgeous photo and Haiku!
