Here's a beauty, an excellent weathering reference for peeling paint and shake roof. Building was in Washington, DC. Photo taken in 1915 & image comes from Harris & Ewing Glass Negative. Is that a bird's nest above the window or an eave plant gone wild?
BTW, that's not me in the picture.

Most "bodacious"!....thanks for posting.
That plant looks like some kind of wierd growth right out of the original Star Trek series......or maybe a wasp nest that took hold behnd an old vine. :-\

I saw this picture on Shorpy the other day and thought it would be a great modeling subject. I guess I was not alone.
Marc, I think those are perhaps swallows nests?? Pat
Great pic!
There's an old corrugated metal house in Austin, NV that has a very similar screendoor:

Nice pic Ray... it is interesting to see the similarities between the doors, kind of variations on a theme.
