Description

It looked quite smart from certain angles but was actually well past its first freshness when one looked closely. (Like me,)

I see you caught it in the middle of the Early Bird special for seniors. You do have to zoom to see the little walker in the background. A gorgeous capture, just amazing.

Living things only get better with age. I like wear and tear, when it's deserved. Butterflies and moths showing wear and tear have probably already reproduced, and what I really like about this shot is the fact that this looks like a Stealth Butterfly with all sorts of complex scanner-jamming equipment. Just look at that narrow target profile! This is brilliant!
