Photo Challenge #8 Is

[Kan Win]

For Challenge #8 I have chosen the topic 'Broken'. This can cover anything from a 'broken heart to a derelict building, a broken down car to a broken pencil, a broken promise to a broken fingernail. Use your imagination and let's all see how creative (or destructive) we can be.

(Disclaimer: I take no responsibility for any eventual damages occurred in connection with this challenge)

Good luck to everyone.
