Antiques

Apologies to those who came here looking for my post on antiques for the photo challenge...it has been fun going back through my photos to find something appropriate...I hope these images from the MET in NYC are old enough to rate as antiques..
these Degas paintings are just exquisite, aren't they?
actually, is this a Degas above...mmm...
the Met is such a great place....I loved it, and it is so good to have a chance to go through these old photos..



little old buildings also fascinate me too....

Apologies once again for my tardiness. There certainly are no antiques at my place ...sorry...hope these have sufficed...if you would like to go to see the other participants in the Brenda Photo Challenge this month...then click HERE ...

I think you win the award for photographing the oldest antiques! Oh my, how can one find anything older than Egyptian artifacts! LOL, all of these certainly MORE than qualify for the designation. And what a thrill you must have had to see Degas paintings in person! Thank you for also including some museum photos to give perspective. And those little old buildings, like that example you show in the middle of all the high-rises, are quite charming! No problem being later - you saved the best for last!!!
