Very nice picture. Hope you have a nice weekend.

Lesley said...

it is the kind of thing that makes a great photo - but would drive me insane if it were on my property! I am far too fussy.

Carletta said...

I hope when you're through pondering those thoughts you'll enlighten us. :)
I for one love peeling paint!

Rose said...

I don't know why they are appealing, I just know they are. And old rusty fences...my husband thinks I am nuts sometimes.

TexWisGirl said...

nice old-fashioned wood. :)

Ramona said...

No need to ponder, just enjoy it for what it is. Sometimes things 'just are' appealing.
It a really great shot.

Great texture effect! The distressed look is in!

Becky said...

You're right. I can see this old fence in my yard with lots of pretty flowers at it's feet.

Linda said...

Love that effect you used - it really brings out the vintage look!

Kathy said...

When you figure it out, let me know!

Nature in the Burbs said...

I love the worn out look, in fences anyway! Nice photo.

Magical Mystical Teacher said...

Charming? Yes, but pity the poor person who has to repaint the fence!

Jan, I have no idea how my first link linked back to last weeks post. Is there a way you can delete #23?

I like your chippy picket fence!

Faye said...

In an instant world it's just comforting to see old things hanging on--like your fence. Of all the peeling paint colors, white is my fav.

This is wonderful looking, I have a hard time keeping my fingers off stuff like this, I tend to pick, pick and pick at the paint. then it doesn't look so rustic and charming, it just looks tired and trashy.

Meggie said...

My eye is always caught by something that has ap -pealing vintage look! Thanks for hosting Friday's Fences....

Nancy said...

I like it! Your texture editing is very cool. :) Thanks for hosting, Jan.

Unknown said...

Hi Janis! I sometimes wonder why we like old stuff!

Judy said...

Good question, but it always seems that way!

Katie said...

That's a classic fence. I love old things for the memories and stories they tell.

Tanya Breese said...

Thank you for wishing me well after my surgery!

Sadly, I'm out of fences so wasn't able to play this week. I do like your picket fence, though.
