Garden tools

I've been looking at the b&w photographs by Paul Nash, of both natural and human-made shapes and structures like stone walls and dead trees but also aeroplanes (he was a war artist among other things).

Then a photograph of scythes hanging on a wall  popped up on social media, also from mid-20th century, by Paul Strand.

Both made me nostalgic for the days before colour photography was available to everybody wherever and whenever. There's a lot to be said for monotone.

Blip is an image of tools in my greenhouse. Most of these date from the 20thC. The trowel on the right was my father's in the Fifties.
