Keep Out

In between packing up, tying up loose ends & running last minute errands... I scheduled in a little "photo field trip" with one of my fellow art students. We set out with no particular agenda... just to drive around & photograph whatever we found interesting. The theme for the day turned out to be old dilapidated houses...


I've always loved old structures like this~ ever since I was a little kid. Note the "keep out" sign on the right. There was also a fence & "no trespassing" sign, which made it difficult to get as close as I would have liked.


Having a zoom lens helps a bit, but not quite enough to pick up all the wonderful textures of peeling paint and moss growing on the roof & siding.


I wonder how long this old house has been standing... whether it will soon be demolished, or if nature will simply continue to take it's course...
