Abandoned

This sweet little abandoned house reminded me of a child's drawing. The only difference is that a child would probably have only given it one chimney. The bright green lucerne really sets it off nicely.

It was a neat house.. and certainly made out of solid stuff..

Love the symmetry in this cottage Dianne, Looks as solid as the day it was built.

[Babs]

I agree with Marnie, it does still look solid. Hope somebody brings it back to life one day.

Lovely capture, and I agree about the child's drawing .. and yes, they'd only put one chimney, wouldn't they?

[Denise Wood]

Delightful :)

I had not noticed that there was birds on the roof.. I just look at my shots and they are there as well..

[Dianne]

@julzmaioro ha - yes, I hadn't realised there were pigeons until I got this image ready for 365.

It would be interesting to know the story behind the home. It looks like it is possibly repairable.

[Mariana Visser]

lovely pov

[Joyce]

So sad to seat empty but a great contrast with the lucerne

[Margaret Brown]

Sad that it's empty now, but it made a nice shot

[Irene]

Nice shot but why two chimneys? I suppose one could be an open fire and another for cooking

[Dianne]

@kelly2 I guess you're right and heating would be important as this wee cottage was in the lower half of NZ's South Island, where winter can be bleak.

[Brooke]

Where is this Dide?

[Dianne]

@brookiew between Moeraki and Oamaru on a side road.

[Call me Joe]
