if God had to build a door
it’s because we erected a wall
Craig D. Lounsbrough
If you knew yourself for even one moment
if you could just glimpse your most beautiful face
maybe you wouldn’t slumber so deeply in that house of clay.
Why not move into your house of joy and shine into every crevice!
For you are the secret Treasure-bearer, and always have been.
Didn’t you know?i
Rumi
If I could only remember
that the days were not bricks to be laid row on row
to be built into a solid house where one might dwell in safety and peace
but only food for the fires of the heart.

The second one really speaks to me.
That's what I thot....ugh. I wonder if I should change it.
Go with your original gut feeling.
Love the Rumi quote and the character in the wall in photo #3. Vines are wanton and usually choose ruins to cling to but occasionally they show taste and adorn a lovely wall
Glad you like that one!
Oh good ones! Must go check out the contest!
Yes....enter the contest....it's always fun to see what everyone submits. I had a hard time choosing....I liked number 1 for the entry but my husband liked number 3. He always gets his own way :)
Can you.enter more than 1? That's good. I always have a hard time choosing just one.
No.....just one. I wish he'd come and choose. lol.

Hey dear, nice pic, I like number 3.
Thanks @ismailali!
You're most welcome my friend.
I like that middle one the best, as an abstract. What was casting the shadows? It looks like pipes or something!
There is a small bridge walkway right beside it and a tree behind that is casting its shadow.

Good artistic view! Second one would be great as contrasty bw. Love it! I hope you don’t mind that I edited it, I just wondered what it would look like, and here it is...
ooooh....looks nice.....the white paint looks like light coming through the slats. I like it. I don't mind you playing around with my photos at all. Thank you.
nice contest u got there....will join up soon
I love the last one but the other two is a great find as well 😉
Thank you @erikah.
they are very successful details and a minimalist composition :)
Good luck in the race, dear friend. I really like!
the second photograph and the shadows on it. very cool!
Glad you like them....it was tough making a decision - I always have a hard time making decisions :)
I think this will be my last contest though.
Wonderful pictures... My favorite pictures are second and third one...
Thank you for sharing and have a nice day my friend... :)
Thank you for your input!! Much appreciated. Have a great day too!
A very well thought out and presented blog @countrygirl I hadn't heard that quote pf Craig D. Lounsbrough's before but I think it is very true and has a lot of impact.
I know....I just found that quote...I love it too. And it's true!! Well not in the biblical sense but in the precept sense. ;)
Great shots, lovely second shot as well! I see everyone commented on it already, but the shadow effect on the fence is great. Very well done ! I do also like the vines running up the walk though, I love how nature over takes man built objects.
Ya....I should have gone with my gut but now I'm too shy to change my entry. Thank you for you comment and input though!!
Glad you joined in the fun!
moi aussi!
I love them all but I think #3 is my favorite.
Thanks so much Deb. I'm so behind in my replies....I haven't been on here for a couple of days. I love that you love the one I entered. I always get befuddled when I get other opinions. So dumb. It's not for an oscar lol....so hard on ourselves right?
We really are hard on ourselves at times. :)
