Abandoned

Andy | Saturday, July 25, 2015 | Best Blogger Tips

I had to wade through hip high grass to get this shot. Locals told me that a elderly gentleman shows up once and awhile to check it out. That is the only attention that the wee house gets.

  1. Wonderful angle and composition. The old gentleman obviously has some ties to this building, which at one time must have been an important residence for him.

  9. It's kind of sad to see a house sitting empty like this but, it does make wonderful photos as your photo attests.

  12. That looks like a neat little house. Maybe not too far gone to renovate? You better watch for snakes in that tall grass! :)

  13. This house could be the setting for a horror movie. Looks like it is at the sea shore?

  14. It does look so lonely and abandoned, which is such a pity. Great photo though, love the angle.

  16. Neat house, those cedar shingles will hold up for a long while. It makes you wonder about the history of the house.

  21. What a beautiful place. I hope someone maintains it, what a loss to the landscape if it should disappear.

  22. I thought I would see Christina lying in the grass, reaching toward the house.
