how to grow old with grace


Nikon D80 | 1/400 seconds | f 3.5 | ISO 100 | 50 mm
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

seven reason why I like best old structures over new people:

*they don't invent stories to seem more interesting
*they know how to keep a secret
*they are proud about their age
*they know how to suffer in silence
*they know how to make you feel like home
*they have personality
*they aren't ashamed to see you naked all the time

Lovely thatch color and then the surprise of blue! Great!

Am recunoscut-o imediat. Ba chiar as putea sa-ti spun si unde anume in curtea muzeului este. Imi place ca ai observat-o. E o casuta fantastica. Imi place mult incadrarea aleasa.
Bravo Romina

Contrast perfect! Trebuie sa fac si eu o vizita la muzeul satului! E musai!

Sweet sensation.
Thank you.

You have a beautiful portfolio. I really like the window & thatched roof...simple yet compelling.

Am copilarit intr-o casa ca asta la bunici. Patul era o lavita si salteaua si perna erau umplute cu paie.Ma intepau rau insa ma adormea mirosul pe care il emanau. Probabil sint prea batrin deja...lol

Clever cropping/composition. I also like the detail and contrasting colors.

thank you all for your visit and comments :)

@Tudor: sunt sigura ca stii exact locul, si mai stiu si de ce le stii asa de bine :)).. ei adolescenta asta, nu? are tendinta de a ramane mereu acolo intr-un colt special al sufletului si mintii..

@Chris: am realizat zilele astea ca am facut o mare prostie. nu am luat descrierile la case.. intentinez sa mai dau o fuga sa le iau.. vorbeau despre aceleasi detalii pe care le'ai mentionat si ar fi facut post-urile mult mai interesante, mai ales pentru cei care nu sunt obisnuiti cu specificul cultural romanesc.
si inca ceva.. sunt sigura ca intr'o asemenea casa copilaria este inzecit mai reusita decat pe scarile blocului..

@Vortex Bits: actually it wasn't cropped at all.. it was taken just like this :)

romina said...

oh.. am uitat. Bogdan, chiar e musai sa dai o fuga :)
