Forlorn and forgotten by dkbarnett

Forlorn and forgotten

No doubt it was once considered a miracle, to lift up that handpiece and hear a loved ones voice. My get pushed challenge this week was 'phone'. It was also to fill the current mundane challenge which ended yesterday. In my yard I have a red wooden telephone box and inside I have this old telephone. The poor thing looks a bit sad and forgotten, especially with those cobwebs around it.
A beautiful low key. I love the details on the spider web

Great response to the challenge.

How about doing a sport shot for your challenge this week?

Hi Delwyn! Gorgeous vintage image.

Did you notice you won the wwyd challenge, by the way?

How times have changed over the last 50 years or longer. The telephone was the only link to the outside world really. We used to have to book phone calls on Christmas Day to relations in Australia. They would never believe how things are today.

@happypat Times sure have changed. Now we have our phone on us always and people always expect to be able to contact us instantly!
