Tina has asked us to show images of things that have seen better days. As Tina said in her post ”my archives are a veritable storehouse of worn, aging items that are full of character” Well, mine too. What to choose?
A gallery of abodes that have seen better times:
Passage of time 
Abandoned manor house 
Abandoned, Lazio, Italy 
No longer a des res
And now lets look at some vehicles that have seen better days:
Abandoned and rusty 
Under the trees… 
Hillman or Triumph? 
Forlorn Beetle
And a few other bits of dilapidated::

Thank you!
The perfect challenge for you, and you chose to showcase some great examples, Sue.
Best wishes, Pete.
Thanks, Pete!
Lovely. I particularly like the house in Lazio.
Ah, that was the only bit of abandonment in this village, just those windows!
Oh Sue, these photos are all so wonderful. It is real hard to pick a favorite. I adore the one with the daisies and the second car, but They are all so wonderful 😀
Pleased you like these, Cee…..the car ones have a special place for me
You just made it, Sue! But then you had to- this is your subject!
Everyone says that, Jo!
Happy Sunday!
🥰
A+ on this one Sue. It seems I was right, somehow we all do love dilipidation 😊
Thanks, Tina! But I forgot the flowers!
Sorry, fat-fingered my comment. Loved your examples, such a great variety
Much appreciated!And there was nothing wrong with your first comment!
Well, a theme made for you, Sue! Wonderful series!
Thanks Ann Christine, but as Brian pointed out I should have put some decaying flowers in!
😀
😄
A wonderful gallery Sue. I was surprised there wasn’t any flowers though 🙂
Oh, there could have been, but I was late getting this together, Brian!
Love, love, love these!
Thanks, Dawn! Somebody once called me the mistress of dereliction because of my images of decay!!
LOL…It doesn’t sound like a compliment but I think maybe it is.
It was intended to be!
These are excellent!
Thanks, Manja! Any favourites?
Ahh, the door, and the two windows, and all the cars. But all together they are great like this.
Thanks, Manja! The cars in the Swedish forest have to be mine!
These photos are remarkable, Sue. I really love the selections.
Thank you, Amy!
