EL & texture

There is something about texture that i like; mmmm ... maybe that feeling as i run my finger along the grittiness, the light contrast 'tween the light and dark edges and that it stands out.

Here are three items that i have loved seeing over the years. They are hand-made by EL when he lived at GGF. The building was an outhouse long out of use and sitting at the edge of the trees in the lower field. I have often thought of removing the hardware but just having them seems to be a bit uncaring as they were made for this building and that's where they should remain until . . .



  
There is a hasp on the door that i have in earlier taken photographs ... really, this is not only outstanding iron work but makes for wonderful textured photographs.

This is my comment after posting, ie, i'm editing. I find the images flat and not very attractive; not much texture there nor are the colors very deep and this is exactly why i created this blog . . . to see how the created images look in a computer separate from the 27" Ultra Fine monitor ... they just don't do it! Now i know ... back to the darkroom!
