Today I decided, since I've never participated in a blog-wide photochallenge before, that I'd try The Sunday Creative from Madeline Bea.
This weeks challenge is 'timeworn'. Something that has been worn down by time itself. And I had the perfect idea.
An old stack of Swedish Bibles that mother scored on at an estate sale. Scored. On. I mean, seriously, these things are vintager than vintage (if that's even possible...).
I think it's decided. These babies are old.
I love the textures here, the old books and the table they are on and the textures overall, a fantastic shot
ReplyDeleteI LOVE THIS PHOTO!! Those Swedish Bibles are from 1886 and they cost me 25 cents each. One quarter each! The only thing I love more than that deal is this photo. Perfectly lovely, dearie.
ReplyDeleteLove that pic! And you are right, those babies are OLD! I like the color and the textures. Looks so good.
ReplyDeleteWow, what a score! The photo is lovely.
ReplyDeleteThe background color really picks up the pink tones in the foreground. Wonderful composition!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great photo! So much character in this! Well done.

Lovely photograph! I have an old Swedish bible somewhere too. I might have to dig through some old boxes to find it but I am sure it is not as time worn as yours!
