 My very first HM and personal best finish :)
Wow, I am so honored that this image finished so well and touched as many as it touched me. This piano was found in an old school. One of the buildings was built in 1938. The entrance into the school is overgrown and is very easy to miss as driving down the road. The old School is located on an old county road. I am attaching photos of the entrance and a cell phone photo of this piano.

I don't know where you found that piano but I love it. I think that's definitely one of the best pictures in the challenge. I can "hear" the silence that the piano has to live with. It looks untouched and depressed. It's silently telling its story. Love b&w. 10
