Talisman

I got this hangman in 1970 when I started my adventure with sailing. According to the rule: "if you're born to hang, you'll never drown". He was with me during all the sea work. Now that we've retired, we're still together.
I liked it most in the low key.

Never heard that tradition!! Best be safe than sorry. Nice low key

What a neat low key shot!

The shadow is great.

I like it in low key, the details of the string are better seen

[Walks @ 7]

Low key fits perfectly. A truly interesting saying too.

Glad you included the meaning of the hangman. Nicely done in low key.

A wonderful keepsake!

Very interesting narrative. And a very nice shot.

Oh my! Reminds me of the game "Hangman." I have talisman charms but none this frightening. :)

It looks rather ominous, I would never have guessed it's a talisman. Glad he kept you safe :-) Beautiful low key image.

I like this shot a lot. Interesting talisman. Looks like it worked.

A spooky image, but glad you had good memories with it!
