I am introducing a post for your photographs with the theme - Seen Better Days

[Kadee]

This was taken in 2005 after we sold out home in the city and set off traveling
This was just the other side of Woomera ( SA) At Gelndambo in the middle of a desert …like Woomera
We was heading across the great Nullarbor Plains ( almost 3 .000 km trip in mostly desert ) to Perth
these tanks were for Bore water for steam trains

This farm house in Mooliabeenee has certainly Seen Better Days

Took this photo in our way home from Canbera last month ..it’s a hotel in Narrandera New South Wales …the whole side of the hotel ( upstairs ) is in a terrible state of repair ….it was open was still operating

This specific house, known as the "Headlight Road house," was built in 1910 by a lumber merchant and is situated in the Eastern Plains of Colorado.

• The house has fallen into extreme disrepair over the years, with visible damage to its structure and missing sections.
• 
  
• It was reportedly scheduled to be burned down in the winter of 2024.

I find a great sadness about these shots - it speaks of life but also life gone and life deteriorating [like my spelling!] and life not cared about anymore?? I am blessed with the gift of pareidolia so perhaps I see things differently anyhow?
