 Worn out shutters on the side of a storage building. I did a little trespassing to get close enough to shoot this. The property owner was not too happy with me and asked me to leave and also called the police. Not a fun situation. I need to be more respectful in the future, as should all of us. 130 mm zoom.

Does this mean that the decaying barn has had a metal skin put over it? I see the tie-in, it's just not all that strong, especially without a description.....5

The wood is not faring well! Or at least not the paint on it. Some nice patterns here.
