Knock, knock...

You might meet Jenny behind this door. Jenny is dressed in grey - always. That`s why they call her "The Grey Lady". Jenny died 250 years ago, but she never quite left this house at Gulskogen Farm in Drammen. Just open the door - I belive Jenny is home....



The Monochrom monday concept came from Aileni at LOOSE ENDS.

One thing is to have a good camera, another thing is to know how to use it and present photos like you do.
Splendid.
And in Norway, we are blessed with billions of exeptional motivs.

Have a great week to come.

btw. My Grandpa did live in Drammen.

Lovely, again. Like your additional bridge photos as well. Btw, over here The Gray Lady is another name for the New York Times.

Håper ellers at livet i Drammen er strålende, og at du får en fantastisk uke min venn :o)

Veldig flott! :)
Jeg kan forestille meg at den døren er litt tung å åpne.
Kanskje den gamle og grå Jenny står på innsiden og holder igjen....? ;)

This old door handle is a wonderful find, Lene. I turned it ad guess what! Jenny WAS home. ;-)

Lots of character in just this simple door handle.

Nydelig! Særlig med en historie som hører til, og gir bildet en ekstra dimensjon! Har lest om denne "Grey Lady", hun ses visst den dag i dag?

Daryl said...

I am sure I would like Jenny, we share a love of the same non color!

Great shot.

Excellent close-up of the door handle - and the flaking door. Eerie story to go with it, too!
