I just had to stop and take a photo of this chimney out in the middle of this field that was once part of someones home. It was just standing there as a reminder that life once inhabited this place that is now overgrown with weeds and grasses.I do hope you enjoy and I'd like to thank all of you that view and comment.Have a great week-end everyone!

Overgrown is putting it mildly..hehehe. very cool how you can see where the roof line used to be...or is.. Maybe the house belongs to aliens and it's invisible cuz they don't want visitors..?=D great image Eileen. good color and composition.You and yours have a good weekend also..

Most people never run far enough on their first wind to find out they've got a second. Give your dreams all you've got and you'll be amazed at the energy that comes out of you.
Neat capture Eileen! It looks so unusual out there all by itself! Hmmmm..maybe if I get tired of winter I'll come down & build a home around it..I already have the fireplace! LOL Good eye on this Eileen!

A very neat capture Eileen ... to see this chimney still standing by itself makes me wonder what happened to the house itself & the people that lived there. The chimney looks very old & comparing it to the two in my house ... I would guess very early 1900's or perhaps late 1890's. The clarity & detail are excellent. Thank you so much for sharing this find ... very nicely done.

Friends are like shining stars. You may not always see them, but you know they are always there for you.
A nice pic...would have been nice if they would have built a house around it.

I would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't and die to find out there is.

This is a neat capture Eileen .... Overgrown is certainly an understatement ..

You do not have to thank me if I leave a comment on your image...unless you really want to. ..It is my pleasure to comment on your beautiful work.
Great clarity in your shot! Might be some treasures around if you poke in the rubble...

Amazing capture! I guess the chimney was made of the strongest materials. Does look rather odd amongst all the weeds.

Someone once called this home; glad you shared this, Eileen. It has a good "mood" to it!

Fall is in the air and mother nature is at her finest with the autumn colors!
Makes me sad to look at this....wonder who what where and when. It's an excellent post Eileen, very striking and well composed.

Can't always give individual thanks but I am so appreciative of everyone's comments and input. I truly enjoy seeing all of your posts and am always happy to see you at My Gallery. Thanks, Anita
Makes ya wonder what use to be here, doesn't it? Probably a large home with kids and fields to farm-now, all gone. Good post.

Great picture to ponder about Eileen. It's a reminder that human creations are just fleeting glances in the grand scheme of things. A great find and well photographed.

Never look down on anyone unless you're helping them up.
You have wonderful insight into life around you, Eileen! Most people would just ignore things like that, or even call them unsightly! Your picture captures continuity of life - wildflowers now rule around that symbol of long gone human life!

Picture Purrrfect .
A purrrfect world is what we all want, but, seems too unobtainable. If I've viewed and commented on your post, and you liked my remarks then NO THANKS is needed...just getting to see your wonderful work is thanks enough for me!!
Also BIG thanks to all who check out my work!! I appreciate any and all comments & feedback!!
a bit sad but a fab shot.

Desire is half of life; indifference is half of death. Kahlil Gibran
I just love images like this. Makes me wonder what the house was like ... who lived there, and what happened to them and the house. There is always a sense of mystery about this kind of scene. Thans for posting it.

To get a friend you have to be a friend!
A very nice contrast photo .... in the middle of nature is this manmade chimney. Almost looks like it grew there, or that maybe there never was a home - though I doubt that! Wonderful find/shooting Eileen!
