Well, I am a thinkin' about gettin' rid of my trailer, and a movin' into this fine lookin' house out in the country. Lot's a space for the ol' woman to plant a garden and such. There's even room for a hammock or two. Cuzin Jasper said he would help with any fixin' the place needed. A little duct tape and some allumenum sidin', and it would be the talk of the county. LOL. HAPPY THANKSGIVING Everybody

Hmmm, a little duct tape hey!! I think it might take a little more than that. LOL. This is my kind of capture. When I travel I am always looking out for such buildings. Good colour, compostion and another great sky. Lyn.

Jim, I one of those that love the older structures. I really enjoy old barns and this is a winner. Very good one the color tones, and of course that sky. I think you might have done one of Bob's tricks on that one?
Duct tape has many uses don't it? Lol! Hey have a good turkey day!

A Happy Thanksgiving to you as well Jim. Looks a bit drafty come winter but would be a good summer home. Keep them both for the seasonal switch! lol!!

Jimbob, watching your new avie, suppose that you've eaten to much turkey at this Thanksgiving Day, lol.
Have my doubts whether it's a good idea or not to move from your trailer into this 'comfortable' shed. Company of spiders, mice and so on will be for granted. My advise is that it's better to enjoy the country by taking good captures of it, like this fine one.
Thanks for this post my friend.
Regards, Cornelius.

Very good photo, I like the tilt of the shed and of course the lighting and composition. Nice find, tie wraps will help also with fixing up this place.

An ominous sky is telling ya to get on out of there, 'cause it wouldn't help to go in...kind of a leaky place it looks like.What a lonely little place, I think you really fix it on up and move in...and plant a bigtime garden, after ya go ahead and work up the soil..get yer exercise thataway. But as far as the photo, its a winner luvey!! Verrrrrry nice. Verena

There are tons of websites for uploading snapshots - photos of your neice, back yard, etc. "Caedes Man" did not start this website for that purpose. His intent was to offer a venue for folks to share artistic images that could be used as desktop backgrounds. Does anyone really want an out of focus shot of a dog for a desktop background? probably not. Let's share the good stuff and help others by telling them what's good or how to improve an image. We could all make Caedes a great site for everyone and use those other places for the snapshot sharing. A first rate family snap sharing website is www.easysite.com. FREE website to share all your snaps plus a whole lot more. Thanks for giving honest and usable feedback. Blessings to all, anne :-)
