Old Snowshoe Leaning Against the Wall by olivetreeann

Old Snowshoe Leaning Against the Wall

Time to post all those pictures I put on the back burner while I was posting the snowmen shots!

One of my friends had set up a small photo shoot at a local antique mall for a few photographers. She thought we would enjoy all the different knick-knacks and what-nots on display. We arrived on the designated day only to find out the power had gone off and wasn't expected to return for several hours. I hadn't brought my tripod like the others who attempted get a few shots of some jewelry in a glass case near the door where some light was coming in. But I was attracted to this old snowshoe instead! In the end we had to leave due to the lack of light, but we have plans to return.
Great shot Ann, fav

Excellent capture. I like the focus on the laces. What a great idea to do a photo shoot at an antique store. I hope you do get to return!

Thank you all! Your kind views, comments and favs put this on the PP. It helped pick up my spirits and energy- seems I've been given the gift of a cold from one of my grandchildren!

@ninaganci No one was sure what caused it. It was a nice, sunny day but our electricity comes from who knows where on the power grid so it could have been that. More than likely it was due to someone driving into a telephone pole since the traffic lights were working and other businesses had their electric on. So it remains a mystery!

Great capture of the snow shoe I`ve only seen in movies and musea.
( a big ``Thank you`` from both our son and me. )

(There is a steam train riding those tracks in summer.)

@pyrrhula Thank you Ferry! (A steam train ride sounds fun!)

You`re welcome. Take an afternoon for it as there are often events along the line.
@olivetreeann Sure it is. We have always been a seafaring people.

Thank you Kerry, Daisy, Kathy and Kim! Even though we didn't get to photograph what we'd planned, this shot made the trip out there completely worthwhile. I'll be printing this one!

Great capture and details looks good in B/W

@wendyfrost Thank you Wendy! There was very little color in the original and with all the texture from the snowshoe, black and white was the obvious choice. I'm glad you like it!

Interesting subject. Like the B&W. Too bad about the power outage.

@eudora Thank you Diane! We will be going back there so it's ok.
