Good Fences #120 - White Stone Wall

Welcome! - I've been absent from the blog for a few days but am back today for GOOD FENCES hosted by Theresa (The Run-a-round Ranc Report)


Just down the street from us is a White Stone wall/fence that I find very interesting to photograph.
 

This shot shows the gate that is on one end of the wall.  I think it has a "medieval" look to it.

 
In this shot you can see the lovely flowering tree that drapes over it in the spring.
 
 
Finally I captured a view of the wall through another fence on a vacant lot.  I like how the roses blooming in the overgrown yard are visable through the opening of the fence.
 



Hope you have enjoyed my fences today.  Have a wonderful day.

  12. Those roses really do stand out! I wish that last shot did not remind me of my garden! I work at those weeds, but they always come back...I guess they are a wonderful (Well, not so wonderful) example of resilience! Also enjoyed your photos of the stone wall.

  21. Looks very solid, Ida.

    I can imagine a small medieval army defending the fortress.

  23. That is a serious fence and gate; I would have to wonder what is hidden behind. I like the peep into the overgrown yard. Nice shot.

  24. Handsome stone fence indeed . . .
    Nice to get the flowering tree as it draped over the wall.
    And the "peek of the roses" through the fence . . .
    Very nice . . .
