treasure found

Our ‘One-a-Week’ Photo Challenge Prompt this week is FENCE
Ronovan’s Haiku Prompts are EYE and FADE
The mitten on the post must have been there a while as it was green with algae. Since starting to do beach cleans, I see all litter and dropped items in a new light. They are all potential art materials with a human back story. It did feel slightly weird taking it from it’s post, but I am pretty certain it’s owner is not likely to return for it. It will go with other found clothing I have and see what art work it might inspire.
The top of the fence post is a little world of its own
The photos were taken on a walk from Nine Wells towards Solva (Pembrokeshire) along the coastal path.
I was walking from the treehouse as the sun was going down.
There was no wind and I stood to watch the sunset before returning
to the cosiness of my nest in the trees.
What fences have you found this week? Leave a link in the comments below, we’d love to see them.

What beautiful photos Sandra! I love imagining the story behind the list mitten and the top of the fence post is great!

The top of the fence post so interesting isn’t it? I’m short on choice here as stone walls are the fence of choice, you know what I mean. I’m thinking I may have to drive around in search of an electric fence keeping cows contained somewhere, but even those are scarce. Haven’t given up hope yet!!

Any fences in archive photos of Maine? I nearly dug out an old photo of me and my kids taking a fencing class on an activity holiday. 😉

Ooh, that would have been very cool! No, no archives of fences. I will have a peak through the photo albums (yes, I have dozens!) Whether I find what I’m looking for or not, it will be a fun time. Thanks for the idea darling 🙂

I think it is the embroiderer in me – I used to do very fine stuff, now I haven’t the patience, so I use my camera to do it for me I think.

The ocean shots are so very beautiful. It will be most interesting to see how you use the fraying mitten in an art project.

Thank you Laurie, I took so many of the ocean and the sun going down, it was hard to choose just one, so I’m glad you enjoyed them.
I have quite a few found articles of clothing now – when I put them all together I’m hoping they will suggest something to me. I’ll be sure to share what happens. 😉

The mitten can still be worn and very nice it is too – I will end up with a staggering outfit from my litter-picking finds!
