They said, "Powerful" and "Minimalist" ...

The rusty old nails that were unearthed during the remodel speak to me of the history of personal involvement...in the forging, the construction and the rediscovery and appreciation of antiquity.

I wish I hadn't had this nail removed... I'd have been satisfied to frame this...

The title is so true, but I love the composition with shadow and nail in just the right place.

Awesome shot

[Holly Daly]

Great textures. This really captures the spirit and amazing age of this nail. The history is evident - if only it could tell you it's story!

[Marnie]

Wow, what a great image Louise. Wish the nail could speak.

square nails hold tighter and are less likely to split your wood too.

The simplicity of this shot really catches your attention - I really like it! fav.

@chard 8:30 AM and I've already learned my "Something New" for the day! Thanks, Richard!
@linah Thanks, Linda! So sorry I didn't save this as it was, but I have the photo...

Great shot Louise

Oh Louise, as I look back to when we first moved here into my Grandparent's home, when we started painting we had some of the old woodwork removed, and I sanded and painted others, but now thinking back I could kick myself in the seat of the pants. How I would do things differently now.

So macro you really have to think about what it actually is!
