This challenge is alternately hosted, each Friday, by the following bloggers:
Amanda from Something to Ponder About , Snow from The Snow Melts Somewhere, and Manja from Manja Mexi Moving who is currently filling in for Snow, because she is somewhat “snowed under,” with work at the moment. Thanks so much, Manja.
Scroll down to find full Instructions on joining in with this challenge.
This week’s prompt, for you to interpret with your photographic genius, is:
‘Abandoned‘

What does ‘Abandoned,’ mean for you?
An abandoned shed or farm building, an old church or closed down mine shaft?



It might mean a disused industrial facility or closed hotel

You might perhaps, interpret this theme in a more abstract way.
Abandoned but never forgotten
It is up to you.

One can still find beauty in things that are ‘Abandoned”

Sad but true, Mike. Poor little guy. I wonder if he lost his Mum or if his Mum knew he was ill.

This topic was brilliant and so thought provoking…history, beauty, melancholy all wrapped in one. Your photos are lovely too and I visited quite a few other posts as well in this thread and it was a treat. I have said this before but I must say it again…inspiration all around- thank you:) I did not have anything along these lines so I could not participate but I thoroughly enjoyed looking at the other posts here !
