The Weekend in Black and White


We went to the New England coast this past weekend and winding our way back home through rural Maine, this caught my eye.   It was so unexpected that it demanded that we turn around and photograph it.  I got a lot of great photos of our fun trip to the coast; but this turned out to be one of my favorites.

I'm linking this photo with The Weekend in Black and White.  If you enjoy black and white photography, please visit Dragonstar here  for this fun weekly linkup.  There are always so many beautiful photographs from photographers worldwide.  They never fail to amaze and inspire me.

I am, also, linking this photo up here for A Photo Challenge by Allie and Mikayla. My photo does not even come close to the quality of photos featured here; but, it is a photo that I'm proud of nevertheless. If you have a moment to hop over and take a peek, you will not be disappointed.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a great week!

    Candace, I love this photo. I need to remember B&W when I take photos of old objects. What a great idea. I am also particularly fond of trains.
