"Watch Your Step.."
The abandoned farmhouse continues!
After I opened the front door, I couldn’t go in.
There was a huge drop off there, so I had to go
around. When I went inside, this is what I saw.
(And sadly, the door in my “Welcome Home” photo had
been ripped off. But the ivy remained..)
I’ll be adding more from this series later, so keep checking back! ;)

This place just needs a little TLC…. love the rustic feel and the tone and texture of the shot. Nice work Birgitta.

I Love these “Desolation” images, they are just so strong. I suppose some “city Dude” with more money than sense may spend a fortune bringing this place back to life one day?

Hmmm Needs a little spring cleaning me thinks! Whats really amusing about it is that if you turn it upside down… it still looks just as messy.
The colours in the ceiling are really wonderful.
Deborah Parkin
fantastic work again Birgitta – love that light of yours – it just shines off the screen (and as i know it shines of the paper too :0)
Such an interesting place – will look forward to seeing more
