I always wonder about the story behind abandoned objects, especially when I spot a one in a place far away from my home.

Fascinating combination … doing mental collage of that capped post in foreground of abandoned barn … !
Guessing some mom is irked that cap didn’t come home. Maybe the cap abandoned the kid, preferring the post? This image could inspire a bit of poetic play …

Lol. The image does evoke many thoughts. I love the glaring eye. Like the collage idea. I’ve just started to do some – time consuming but fun.

The second photo is amusing, but I’m loving the first one!!! The muted colors and the texture of all those bare and snow-laden branches are very striking.
