Growing

Many trees pushed and shifted the man-made structures, such has the heavy steps on this staircase.

I love how nature reclaims everything eventually.
There are often pictures of plants creeping in through windows or moss growing on rotting floorboards - seems so melodramatically poetic.

Could you imagine walking away from those steps just as one popped? Love this shot Motts!

Nice. There would be NO way I could walk past that beckoning open door without going inside (though I might have to shimmy up the tree rather than use those steps :-)). Nice angle, and again, B&W fits this, especially with the pattern of the bricks.

Looks like a back door. My favorite place to sneak out or in.

Never more true...
