More than one {Texture}

Willa texture - Nancy Claeys

My son happened to spot this railing in back of an old church in town as we were driving past (or is it passed?) and thought I needed to get a picture. Boy, am I glad he's a good spotter for me! I love this heart shaped wrought iron banister. There are so many cracks and chips and worn places. I'm sure there have been many people who have ascended and descended these solid steps, gliding gracefully down while sliding their hands along the cool iron. Children have perhaps played on here, crawling and scampering underneath the rails having a grand time! 

Varied colors and textures in the gravel and grass make it a pretty picture, too.

Do you make u-turns and go back for a photo op?

  2. Your Son has a great eye for beauty, and I think so Mother so Son. Beautiful shot and edit, love the heart shaped bannister.

    I'm still not used to take my camera along all the time... often I do not make U-turns, but go back home catch my camera and drive right back ;(
