This is a long abandoned farmhouse not far off the road in a tiny town-no-more called Ouellette.
I made a trip out there the on my day off as it was VERY sunny and I wanted some high contrast pictures of it.
Within my memory here...about 25 years I can not remember it being occupied in any way.
It's actually amazing that this building, probably about 100 years old, is still standing and surviving the often harsh snow-laden winters without falling down.
I hope there aren't the last pictures of it but I know it will fall some day.
This colour image was modified using software that 'tries' to recreate it as a lithograph rather than a true B/W but bending themes is what we're all about eh?
Let me know what you think of it please.
Looks far better enlarged, were you scared to get closer? Is it that kind of old house?
ReplyDeleteThe old, neglected building does make a fine image.
ReplyDeleteI like the pale blue-grey sky behind the farmhouse. I tend to think of the story behind scenes like this...who used to live here, what were their dreams and what caused them to leave. Your term town-no-more fits many places around my neck of the woods too. There are many "almost" town-no-more's too...sad in so many ways.
ReplyDeletemission accomplished with high contrast! I agree with gerberbaby1 about that fabulous blue gray sky - this is a framer for sure!
