I spent some time with the late afternoon sun leaving long shadows on the garage door from this old-fashioned latch. When I was a kid, on my grandparents' farm in Guilford, Connecticut, all the barn doors had latches like this. I was thrilled when we bought our house years ago, that the garage door had the same kind of latch. I spent time with this photo, trying for something more abstract, rather than just representational. I love that the shadows are blue. One of these days I will tell you why that is.
i've always loved that latch, too. but i've never looked at it up close like that, to see how many years it's held up. wow...
