The images I share for my BSM were taken a couple weeks ago while visiting a friend's 100 year old home that they recently purchased. I love things vintage and am incredibly drawn to historic places and homes, so naturally I end up taking photos of such things.
The chipped fence that has surrounded this home for probably a century, I found charming. And then the classic, wooden toy that's probably older than I am, which I'm certain has given many children countless hours of joy, I loved. These shots are to honor the past and present, and to keeping the balance of both.
For more magical shots, visit Tracey at Mother May I.

Lovely shots...I wanna give those wheels a spin :)
These are great. I don't know if I would want to buy a very old house, but history does have a huge appeal. Just imagining all the lives that were lived in a place like this. Wow.
These shots are both gorgeous -- you did a great job with the framing and composition!
Beautiful - words and photos! It's too bad simple, classic toys like that are so hard to find.
I love these shots. Something about them makes me feel a nostalgia that I do not recognize...they evoke a longing in me, yet comfort at the same time. Very interesting...great job.
lovely perspective in the fence shot.
The fence is great - captured your thoughts perfetly!
I love both of these photos! So nostalgic!
Both shots are great. I especially love the little bike.
I do so love all things vintage too. That fence line is just stunning!
Excellent pictures! Love the first one, it is stunning.

Well the toy maybe older than you are but it is certainly not older than I am!!! Or if it is it has never been left outside in the rain as our toys were......
Very nice composition and colour on these.
I love old iron gates. Looks like a lovely place to visit.
