Self Portrait ~ Old, Bent, Busted And Struggling To Stay Upright

[JBW]

For the curious ~ It is one of the sections of our bamboo fence that desperately needs replacing.

Nice textures and composition.

I did try the shot with a flash but I lost the feeling.

I like this one, a lot -for the creative composition, beautiful tones and colours, and hint of texture. A subject worth exploring more?

There is one very wee bright white speck near the top right that I'd clone out if it were mine.

Shouldn't you be fixing it instead of taking pictures of it?


I'm swamped with doing stuff around the house right now and haven't had the time or the energy to get out and about with my camera...

i left it in for a bit of contrast. But it is personal taste time.

I saw earlier where you got stuck with brush and roller. One of the very few advantages o a disability pension is that it travels. The pension that would not even cover groceries in Canada helps us to pay a handyman gardener over here.

As for replacing the fence it is a Catch-22. new fencing looks good but doesn't photograph near as well.

Go back to your painting Grumpy.

You should get that seen to.

Nice simple composition.

if I can ever find a doctor that has it figured out instead of one that is just practicing I will.
