Hello Debbie,
It’s amazing that something decaying could be beautiful, but this photo proves it.
Thanks for sharing this interesting blue.

Happy Blue Monday!

Gorgeous picture – am guessing that the right side of the balcony was more protected from the elements?

It’s actually the fence alongside the cliff path, part of the “Viking Trail” along the Kent Coast.
