Wabi-sabi. The old gardener's shed
Today's Sunday Challenge is: Wabi-sabi
The word “wabi-sabi” is derived from two Japanese words.
“Wabi” refers to an austere, natural state.
“Sabi” refers to a lonely, melancholic sense of impermanence in life.
So the concept of “wabi-sabi” has slightly sad undertones, but in recent years has been made more positive– the beauty of imperfection, the beauty of things that are in flux, and the beauty that nothing will last forever.
This gardener's shed at Attingham park has been replaced by a newer model still in keeping with the surroundings. This one is beginning to rot and both back wheels have fallen off. You should also see that some branches have been blown down. They are left to rot naturally to fulfill the life cycle of Nature.

A beautiful snow drop image in the PiP too. Lovely work!
Interesting sign: 'gardeners at work' ;-)
The bare branches convey a sense of abandonment, I think the photo conveys a poetic sadness ....
All the best
Fabio
best wishes, Sarah
