I got out today and took a short hike out to an old ranch in Carmel Valley. I had gone there a few years back when I only had a point and shoot camera and took some pictures but was never all that happy with them. Figured since I was in the area again today I'd see what I could do with my nice camera. When I have a hard time decided on which picture to post I ask my wife to select her favorite...this antique door handle was her selection. A posted a few others on my Flickr that I liked but did a little post work since they weren't going to be my photo of the day.
I must have seen a hundred like that over the years and never SEEN one thank you for the reminder to look everywhere.
ReplyDeleteGreat detail captured here.
ReplyDeleteI have a love affair with doors and details such as this which show off such exquisite old age textures. Nice tight compo here.
ReplyDeleteI had to laugh on your mention of your wife, my poor wife has to continuously offer forced opinions on all matter of my stuff, hah. Hope you had a good weekend Rob.
I can see why she wanted you to post this - it's wonderful - love the textures.klsbear
ReplyDeleteI knew a guy in Charleston SC that was taking pictures not of door knobs, but of the door knocker things, and was thinking of publishing a shrink-wrapped book called "Knockers of Charelston".
ReplyDeleteI am thinking "Doorknobs" would work equally well! LOL
Nice textures here though...
