OUCH!

Hi Karon!! I’m not sure if it’s a shed or little house … but yes, I think it probably did cave in. There are a lot of structures in this particular area in pretty bad shape. So picturesque to my eyes!! So glad you liked the fall colors!!! Thanks so much for stopping by, hon!!!!!

thank you!!! Soooo glad you like this one!!!

Darling Johan!!! Soooo lovely to see you come by, hon!!! Glad you enjoyed this one!!! Hugzzzz!!!

Hi Dottie!!!! Thank you so much … this one was a lot of fun to play with!!!

Lynda!!! you are one fast-moving lady!!!!! I uploaded a couple of these and forgot to click the “Hide” button on one!!! Sorry!!!! Glad you like it … yes, this is probably a shed … there are a lot of crumbly structures in this area … all fascinating to me!!!

Hiiiiiiii BigDDDDDDDDDD!!! Thank you, thank you!!!!!! Don’t you just love autumn??

Oh, Andrei!!! No fall colors in Australia?? HORRORS!!! Wow … I bet you did enjoy your visit here, then!! This is my favorite time of year!! Thanks so much for visiting, hon!!!! Hugzzz!!

Thank you, Carlos!!!! I really got on a tear with the Photoshop last night, what fun!!! So glad you like the results!!

Thank you so much, dear Antanas!!!!

Thanks, Alan!!! I went playing in Photoshop again last night, lol, such fun!!! Glad you like what I did!!!

... laffin’, laffin’ ... now, now now, Missy. Now, it WASN’T. THIS time … oooo errrrrr … Hubby’s car is just FINE, thank you very much. ... sigh … glad you like this one … it was such a cheerful little shot before I stuck it in Photoshop, lol!!! WHEEEE!!!!

Oh, Ash, you’re sooo right!!! There are so many amazing old tumble down structures in this area, but this one really caught my eye last winter!!! Had to give it another go with the fall colors all around it!! It really does look overgrown in this shot!!! Thank you so much … I’m glad you enjoyed it!!!!!!

Meeeeee tooooooo!!!! But then, come winter, I’ll be enjoying the snow and saying the same thing. And in spring, when the daffies come up … and summer, when … oh … well, you get the idea, lol!!!

Bless your heart, Lisa!!!! Thank you soooo much!!!! Yes, my imagination goes all crazy with this one, too … my vision of somebody’s car landing on the roof IZZ a bit of a stretch … but who knows???? Thanks again for stopping by!!!

Thank you Shane!! I’m so glad you liked this one!!

LOL .. Chuck, no I’d have to guess not … but it is in an area that’s inhabited. The funny part about the winter shot, that you don’t see in this one, is the giant television antenna … it free standing … right in front of the house … and is about half again the size of the house!!

Hi Grumpy!!!! Thank you!!!! I’m glad you liked it!!!!

well, yeah, that’s true, that’s true. Everywhere but up on top of a ski mountain!!!!!

Thank you so much, dear Sylvia!! This one is a bit out of the ordinary for me … a bit darkish … so glad you liked it!!!!! Thank you again!!!

Thank you so much, Rod!!! Yes, little buildings like this would be an eyesore to most people … but to me, in the right setting … away from the hustle and bustle and expectations of suburban environments, they’re very thought-provoking!! And how right you are about Mother Nature!!! A lesson to be learned there!!!! Thanks again!!! hugzz!!!

Thank you so much, Tony!!! Always a treat to see you’ve been by!!!

Hiiii sweetie!!!! Thank you … well, if you get the feeling you want to investigate more, then I’ve done my job: gotten your curiosity going!!! There are several fallen-down structures in this little town … the window in “Broken” is from another one of them and “Posted – No Trespassing” is just down the road not more than 5 minutes drive. To me, all very interesting!! Thank you for visiting and for your lovely comment!!!

Thank you, Bela!!! I hope I’m not boring everybody to death with all these autumn scenes!! I’m trying to switch them up with different subject matters now, though!!!! Thanks again for visiting!!! Hugzz!!!

Hi Steve!!!! Thank you so much!!! Yes, you almost have to look twice to see the little house / shed, now!!! So glad you enjoyed it!!!

Oh, Lesley … you sweetie!!!! Thank you!!!! I’m so glad you like this one … you can really let your imagination romp when you look at this poor little house!!!

Hello, hello beautiful Shirley!!!! Thank you, sweetie!!!!! Isn’t autumn just the BEST??

... Sssssiiiiiiigh … well, truth be told, little me had an … um … event with my car and my hubby’s. Um … and … um … no, it didn’t involve anybody’s roof … but there was some … um … crumpling, shall we say, involved??? ... Ssssiiiiiigh … And no, I wasn’t Happy Dancing on the roof either … I don’t know if this poor little house EVER saw any happy dancing!!! But that you liked its image makes me very happy!!!!! Thank you, sweetie!!!!

yeah … she did!!! ROFL!!!!

Thank you, Linda!!!! I’m taking a class in digital editing and tried out one of the ideas we used the other night. What FUN!!!! This one started out as a bright and cheerful little thing, totally contrary to the subject … I think the method used brought it more in line with the “mood” I was looking for. Thanks again for your visit!!

Oh, Bela!!!!! Bless your heart!!!! Hon, don’t encourage me … I’ve got a million more in here!!!! LOL!!! I’ve been trying to mix them up with other things the past few days … LOL!!!! But I’m with you … there’s nothing more exciting in Nature than autumn colors!!!

thank you so much … I completely agree!!! Even in the winter shot I have of this little house from last year, with snow all around, the sumac is still a gorgeous bright red splash!!!

Oh, Dave .. you’re too kind!!!! Thank you soo much!!!!

Thank you, Joanne!!!! Yes, very thought provoking!! There are so many falling-down structures in this area … one in particular, if only I could get inside!!!!! A real “General Merchandise” store … the shelves still have the cigar boxes … everything!!! One of these days, lol!!!! So glad you liked the two of this one … the first one, in winter, I shot on the fly as my husband drove past, lol!!!!! Hence the not-so-good composition with the bit of road in front. I should try photoshopping that out, come to think of it!!! Anyhow, thanks again!!!!!!!

Robert … I’m honored!!! Just had a visit to your portfolio … yeah, I’m honored!!!! Thank you so much!!!!

Hiiii sweeetie!!!!! Yes, I did put it up here … take a look … top right!!! Since dear hubby was driving when I snapped the shot, I put a Photoshop filter on to disguise the less-than-snappy details … lol … but check out the sumac!!! I might put this one back into PS and play with it a bit … maybe get rid of the road .. maybe enhance the sumac … what do you think???

Honestly, I was very wary of photoshop, but the winter shot here, by necessity, got me going on trying new things. It was just such an incredible light day … I think I shot it in February … and my husband, driving us home, was not about to stop every time i saw something I liked. So when we got home, I was faced with the choice, do something creative with the shots or toss them. So … that was pretty much the beginning of me playing with PS … and I’ve got to tell you .. it’s FUN!!!

Oh, you’re absolutely right … it’s ridiculously pricey. The one I’m using is from 2003, if you can believe it!! The one we’re using in class is the CS3 … and I’d get the new one if I could afford it … that’s for sure!!! But there’s no way right now that I’d even consider it. In the meantime, YOUR photograpic work is fabulous!!!

Clark … next fall you must plan a trip to the mainland if only to see fall colors!!! Thank you so much .. this one is another example of me trying new things and having FUN!!! LOL!!! Hugzzz!!

LOL!!! Thanks, Jack!!!!! I’m honored!!!!!!! YAY!!
