It's old hat... by aecasey

It's old hat...

The word for today is "hat" and I've had this old, beloved cowboy hat in mind for a photo for quite awhile. It held up to wind, dirt, rain, snow, and sun for many seasons before it was finally retired to the hat rack. It no longer offers much protection from the weather, but it sure holds a lot of memories.
Great pic!

Great focus and lighting. That's the greatest cowboy hat ever! Is there a letter in that hat somewhere??? I wish we'd see the sun this week!

@karenzachary @luckyhusker44 Thank you. It was a gray, overcast day with no sunshine so I was surprised to get this much light with the barn door open. Hoping for sun tomorrow ... the words are "sun" and "snow" ... :o)

We had snow today but no sun. It was more like snow pellets instead of flakes.

Nice composition; wonder how it would look B&W?

@richk hmmm...tried B&W and it pulls the eye away from the rope and cinch on the saddle and up to the hat. Thank you for the suggestion.
