Hope he doesn't come take pictures of my garden:-) Bed frames with vines growing around, washing machine agiators planted with flowers and cutlery hanging from trees:-) He would be appalled!!!

Glad he's not my neighbour, LOL

I know that is what I thought too!!! LOL My yard is a junk yard(-:

Reminds me of our town ruling against a Cell phone tower at the little airport we have.They voted NO because they thought all that metal was an UGLY entrance to the city THEN,,,,,,,
they spent 6 thousand on this huge hunk of steel sculpture that when my grandson looked at it he said
"OH NO ! Some body crashed their airplane!"

Funny that that person bothered to take a photograph of something that disgusted them... then posted it. I would have taken the pic because I liked it...

I think he secretly likes the teapot, I think he'd like to have it in his yard.

Ha ha, I liked Tasymos comment "and yet you are benefitting from their Garden Junk. Don't be so judgemental. One manstrash is another mans treasure...", he/she sure told em!!

It's a good photo...too bad the photographer may not have appreciated the beauty! Jeanne S.

I'm curious why he would consider doing a series of the teapot in the seasons if he finds it so disgusting...personally I love the photo. If it weren't taken by such a negative person I might ask to have it blown up and buy it from him.

I'm guessing that the Photographer was using a telephoto lense. The Junk-Lovin' neighbor probably has a junkyard dog to keep nosey neighbors out. They need to shout, "GARDYLOO" and toss them some of their 'junk d'art' over the fence. Photofool will then have his 'own' private collection of net-postable garden pictures. There is something sneaky about snapping pictures of your neighbor's yard to secretly humiliate them on the web.

lol good comment Tasymo....but maybe he is just searching for approval for the others that post on that site. yep, he secretly loves it, lol. And why can't the good neighbors check on the homeowner...maybe they have gotten old and need some help from someone....

Hey, do ask him to do a series and come over to our site and post when he is done....we appreciate that kind of junk too. In fact invite him to come over and see what a real photo looks like taken of our good stuff.

Well to each his own. He needs not to be so judgemental. If he doesn't like it, why did he take such a beautiful picture.

I saw the picture and thought it looked very nice but thought you have to wonder if his neighbor's yard really is a junkyard. The innocent teapot hanging on a pole might be the tip of the iceberg. The person might really have a yard full of rat lovin' junk rather than our kind of junk. he-he I couldn't resist adding a comment though.

The noive of some people. LOL Tasy, you told him good!!

I felt put off by his comment, but Luna is right remember the post a while back witht he lady who had real crap draped from all her trees and it looked like she just threw her garbage in the yard instead of throwing it away? We just don't know. But Tasy your comment was perfect. No matter what the condition of the yard he shouldn't have been so judgemental especially considering that he is using it in his art.

We put old wooden ladders up last year for our grape vines to climb on and my neighbor nearly had fits. I put a walkway around the house and didnt want to spend any money putting some thing around it to define it. We had taken down a fence and a couple of trees. So, I had the fence posts and pieces of wood cut up that I could use to line the path. We cut the fence posts in half and used them on the sides of the house. Out front I wanted it to be more rustic looking because I have an old pump, wagon wheels, and a bench made out of a large pole, cut in half, and holding a huge chunk of wood for a bench. So, I had my son to chop the pieces of wood in half and I laid those out in the front of the house to line the path there. My nighbor came over and saw that and nearly had an accident in his pants. I am working hard on getting those grapes to grow up those ladders so he don't have to see my yard. LOL I know he hates my garden junk but I have every right in the world to put whatever I want in my own yard. I"m on the look out for a toilet and bath tub to mosaic and put out there next. He's really going to have fits then but its what I want so I'm going to do it. One person's trash is truely another's treasure. He has his doors on his house painted purple and I hate that but I dont let it bother me. It's his house, he can do what he wants with it. People worry too much about the silly little things in life, dont ya think???

Cindee said "My yard is a junk yard" ..... well, it's one of the prettiest junkyards I've ever seen!

That's true Deb, people shouldn't worry so much about the small stuff .... because really, it's all small stuff. And I would love to be your neighbor! Sounds like a good view with the old pump, wagon wheels, etc!

There was a woman here in Chatta recently who was cited by the city because she had a couple of manequins out in her yard, and the neighbors made such a stink, that this little battle went on for a few months, until the city finally dropped it's charges. The only thing that ended up happening is that they made her take down some kind of sign in her yard because it violated the local sign ordinance.

Personally, I thought, it's her yard, this is America, and we can enjoy these freedoms. Unless you buy a home in a community where there are lots of rules. I have avoided that so far. Those golf course homes are lovely, manicured and beautiful, but not for me. I want my trees, privacy and my junk!
