Lucky Latch

As there are only a couple more days to the end of the 31 days of rust theme I thought I would show this photo taken at Tocal last Sunday.

This is how they bolt the barn doors on country property in New South Wales apparently.

This barn door doesn't look as though it had a bolt on it at all until the horse shoe was placed there.

Another wonderful find Babs. Love it.

[Colin Fawsett]

Super RUSTic shot Babs.

[Hazel]

Yes, what a lucky latch - really like it!

That is really innovative, great recycling :-)

[Robyn]

Great textures

[Meredith McNay]

Well spotted.

[Kane Arlow]

Lovely and rusty, another great use for a horseshoe.

[Gillian]

Fabulous rust. So neat to use a horseshoe as a lock/handle.

[Tammy]

Another great find! I hope all the luck doesn't fall out (I thought horseshoes were supposed to be pointed up, like a U!). I really like all the textures in this shot.

[Gosia]

Like this rusty bolt.

[Denise fuller]

Love it

[8yearson]

Fabulous rust and crisp shadow, must be very sunny and hot!

[tony gig]

Wonderful textures in this lovely shot Babs.

[gloria jones]

Great find, textures, light.

[Peter]

lots of texture and detail, great shot Babs;)

[Pat Knowles]

What could you have better....makes complete sense!

[Paula W]

Just seems like a perfect idea and makes for a great shot too Babs. I like how the nail holes show in the shadow!

[Yao RL]

Love the earthy look!

[Derek Vickers]

Great title Babs. Love the textures. Very nice

[Lee Potter]

Great shot Babs, simple but effective

[Jane Morley]

Brilliant idea!

[Kathie]

That would freak my Mom out as she's say the luck is running out of the horseshoe. Of course, the horse ran out of the horseshoe too. I have no idea where I'm going with this. Unique find.

[Gena Pegg]

Nicely seen and captured Babs. Great idea for a latch too!

[Angela Tavan]

well spotted and the textures in the timber and horseshoe are great, as is the rust in the latter.

Thank you all so much. sorry for the group reply, but I haven't been feeling too good today. Hopefully will bounce back tomorrow.
I am not sure what was in the barn, but the horseshoe seemed to hold the door quite securely, so hopefully there wasn't a bull in there, ha ha.

[Marnie]

Hope you feel better soon Babs, take care.

[Annie D]

gorgeous shadow!

[Annie D]

P.S hope you felt better today :)
