Hi Nick,
Yes nostalgia is the word. For sure.

Indeed it seems to be that way, Andre! And I am very glad to know that you see and consider it the same way. This haunted feeling has not much to do with fear, it is rather nostalgy I guess (?)
I'll be wating to know your opinion on the next ones in this direction.
Cheers,
Nick

Nick,
From reading your reply, I can see that we both have almost exactly the same perspective on the mixing of nature with old abandoned man-made items and buildings.
There is an area near us where the old wooden houses are long gone. But there are some very faint outlines of old wooden fences, overgrown pathways and a few very wild domestic flowers blooming every year. It is not hard to imagine the young families of the past playing and working in this area. Images taken in places like this can have a very haunting effect, when you let your imagination run wild.
Andre

Well, Greg my friend, it seems that nature just takes its way, no matter what we do and how we try to prevent it from doing that. And it is good that it does.
Many many thanks for the nice comment!

Thank you, Andre, very much!
Yes, these old gardens, where some human made things start breaking down, have much more character. They tell us so many stories of the past, and who lived there, and how short the time is, that human beings are allowed to intervene nature - which then just continues as if nothing had happened.
Cheers,
Nick

Many many thanks, Kosta. Indeed I discover for myself, that I'd rather get closer to a flower and shoot a wide angle than a macro. At least for the time being I am very attracted to the feeling of depth and distance - empty space if you wish - that a wide angle is able to create.
Thank you very much again,
Nick

An excellent, warm scene Nick,
Sometimes those wild gardens have the most character. I like the Ivy growing on the side of the house too.
