Autumn colors

Weekly photo challenge – inside

I had trouble deciding what kind of pictures I would like to add to this. Here are two different approaches to it. The first picture are taken in valley of the Kings in Cyprus
Spread over a vast area, these impressive underground tombs date back to the 4th century BC. They are carved out of solid rock while some are decorated with Doric pillars. High officials rather than Kings were buried here, but the magnificence of the tombs gave the locality its name.

The other set is home of the elephant farm workers in Thailand…totally different take.

Colors – Red and Green

The topic was color, my first thought was flowers so colorful and vibrant, Instead I chose buildings with color…but they are not macro,so no they are out,  these are kind of macro photos of  apples and berries

Weekly Photo Challenge – Different Point of View

I took photos of this old wooden barn –  I have not taken  one single shot  of the whole building,  but the parts that are about to be destroyed by time.

I do not once again know if this a different point of view… of what. But it is beautiful in its ugliness.
