Derelict by Rachael Macleod

This abandoned and condemmed building lies on the road to Craigies Farm just outside of Edinburgh. I walked around the back to take this photo as I was interested in what it had been and it appears to have been a residential dwelling which is now entirely gutted and crumbling.

Juicy by Rachael Macleod

This is actually a light fitting making up the ceiling within the food court of the Italian version of Harrods which is directly opposite Duomo in central Milan. I liked it immediately and proceeded to get some very strange and confused looks from people! Frankly I thought it was more strange that someone would pay £300 for a bottle of water….

A Pile of Leaves by Michael E. Frye

All profits (100%) from the sell of this of this piece go to benefit the The Huntsman Cancer Institute. Please visit my gallery to see more works available for charity: Mike’s Heart Art. A pile of leaves from a fall raking made for a very interesting abstract. I used the colored pencil and glass (frosted) filter in Elements to create this dark, somewhat dreamy (nightmarish maybe) effect. Light on the stems and leaves and the shadows under really added some depth to this penciled photo and took it to a level abstract that was unexpected. To view a tutorial on a similar technique, but painting in Elements 7, please visit PhotoCapM.
Jackson's Saw Mill Covered Bridge by Monte Morton

Featured in Americas ~ Rural, Urban, Wild, & Free Featured in Fall in the North-East USA 11/09 Featured in Historic Places 11/09 Featured in A Place To Call Home 11/09 Featured in Barns & Old Grist Mills and Covered Bridges from around the World 12/09 Featured in Old Things 12/09 The bridge was built in 1878 by John Smith and Samuel Stauffer. Jackson’s Sawmill Covered Bridge or Eichelberger’s Covered Bridge is a covered bridge that spans the West Branch of the Octoraro Creek in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, United States. A county-owned and maintained bridge, its official designation is the West Octoraro #1 Bridge. The bridge is purportedly the only covered bridge in the county that is not built perpendicular to the stream it crosses due to the placement of the sawmill on one side of the bridge and the rock formations faced by the builders on the other side. In 1986 it was added to the National Register of Historic Places as structure number 80003520. The bridge can be found in Bart Township, 3.25 miles to the east of Quarryville and 1.5 miles south of Pennsylvania Route 372 on Mt Pleasant Road. Due to its remote location in an isolated part of the county, it is seen less than many of the county’s other covered bridges that are closer to the major populations centers such as Lancaster. If there is a Covered Bridge out there for you to see…it’s this one! 100% donated to “The ART for Cancer Group”
