Last ditch effort to shoot for empty room in an abandoned cottage. Stumped for how to make the object work. Meanwhile this happened in pp. I did think it stunningly conveyed absence or even death. So I am well pleased to have it hang in the deadman's gallery.

I was however stunningly saddened by the festation of flea bites incurred. (Glad I left the dogs at home).

Nice. So underrated in that challenge. Oozes sadness.. waiting for the call. Dead leaves suggesting time passing. The bright colors adding some confusion. Great shot.

What a truly beautiful set of comments. I thank.

Yes, tangoista, the bitey bumps linger on. Who knows, maybe greatness looms. Just yesterday I fell onto some goat poop.

This is so much more than a mere photograph!!! I can't put my finger on it but it's brilliant and profound. Congrats on the gallery!

Fleas? Pshaw! We all suffer for our art :-)

What a trip. I didn't see this during voting. I feel like I drank to much.

It looks like this should be in the empty room challenge. Perhaps the title implies sadness but I feel this DNMC

The sadness in this photo for me is the old dial type phone. Tells me I'm getting old because I used those. Good luck.
