Odd – Old stuff in a warehouse

I don’t know, if it is odd to photograph stuff, old unused stuff. I have been doing a lot of this lately. In the places everything is chaos, but in a photo it suddenly looks good, the mess, so odd. These are from a old carpenters workroom , not in use any more. The tools are old as you can see, as are the bikes.

Thanks Cee for your support!

Congratulations! I have selected your post to be featured on Cee’s Odd Ball Challenge!

Monochrome Madness (18)- Old Tallinn Town

Black and White photos

This is my week 18 submission to the Monochrome Madness Challenge hosted by Leanne Cole and Laura Macky.

These are taken from The Towers Square in Tallinn. All Photos can be enlarged by a click.

Built up from the 13th to 16th centuries, when Tallinn – or Reval as it was known then – was a thriving member of the Hanseatic trade league, this enclosed neighbourhood of colourful, gabled houses, half-hidden courtyards and grandiose churches is, quite rightly, the city’s biggest tourist draw. And the fact that it’s all neatly packaged within a mostly intact city wall and dotted with guard towers gives it an extra dose of fairytale charm.

Tallinn Old Town is listed in the UNESCO World Heritage List.

Monochrome Madness 16 – Details of a field sawmill

Black and White photos, Photography

This is my week 15 submission to the Monochrome Madness Challenge hosted by Leanne Cole and Laura Macky.

I saw this field sawmill beside a country road, as we were searching for old lumber, as always, I had to take photos. My first thought was that these would look good in black and white. Do you agree?
