Turn


To everything - turn, turn, turn
There is a season - turn, turn, turn
And a time for every purpose under heaven
~The Byrds
1965

Taken from Ecclesiastes 3

The photo was taken of our detached "garage" that lies at the back of our property.
It's a worn-down ugly old building that needs to come down
but has a few qualities worth photographing.


Always look at the bright side

Worn down ugly can sometimes be very beautiful, and this IS.

Chasity this is a beautiful post, I love the message behind the photo. I sure hope that you find a new home for parts like this when you take the old building down.

I heard this song on the radio late one night earlier this week and I was going to google it to find the song, I didn't know the Band nor the name of the song so you've saved me from trying to find it! Thank you ever so much.

Have a fantastic day.

There is beauty in age, but it takes a certain way of seeing to find it. This is beautiful, thanks for seeing it!

Lovely photo, lovely post. What a flashback, though...The Byrds! I remember riding down Glenstone Avenue in Springfield, Missouri with this song on my friend's car radio!

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, isn't it? I think old & rusty can be a beatuiful thing;)

Goodness if the rules are to tear down the old and worn I'm outta here. There's a nostalgic presence of mind associated with those images, things that say Grandma and Grandpa, family ties, we need those in our life as well. Such beautiful shots. Take Care AJ
