Tiny Tuesday - Peeling Paint.

The theme for today is Rust and Peeling Paint.   I couldn't find anything that combined the two elements, so I have gone for just peeling paint.  This patch is on our back gate, we have been saying for ages that we need a new back gate, but it wasn't until I took this close up shot that the full extent of the damage was revealed.  The amount of rain and frost we have had lately has rotted the exposed wood.  
I must admit I rather like this macro shot, as an image, if I forget it is our back gate and see it just as an image.  It puts me in mind of a landscape  of rocky cliffs.

Thank you Cathy1947 for coming up with another interesting challenge for Tiny Tuesday.
