This place way up on a dirt road looked as if it had been abandoned for quite some time, but it's still hooked up to the electricity lines! The big old tree to the right is what originally pulled my eye into this photo!

These are absolutely my favorite kind of shots. Here we have the remnants of a life past. When survival was a daily task along with so much else. Eventually, however, nature begins to take back what was borrowed. Wonderful shot, 'Lil PJ! It's a keeper :)

Well, after all, one can't be without the modern conveniences. They probably even have indore plumbing! LOl

PJ, can't imagine that people are still living there. They have at least to repair the roof. Your image, however, creates a certain nostalgic atmosphere! Very good work. Regards, Cornelius

Cornelius was here! (lol) Click HERE to see his work!
If it were around here, it would be a hunting cabin that city folks had pooled their funds together and bought, so they would have a place to get away. The roof has had tin put on and there still are curtains in windows. Makes you wonder. Love the setting you chose and the composition is excellent. Framing suits the season. Great post.

I'm not sure if the tree is a mirror of the house or the house a mirror of the tree. They both look pretty rustic and show their age. Nice comparison with good composition and sharp detail.

That is really a nice find, the house has a lot of character and that tree just sets a period, lovely shot.

Someone somewhere is listening to you!
Looks like a 'handy-man' special and I'm sure they got it at a good price. I'm not too sure about the indoor plumbing though. lol What a fabulous shot, PJ. It's funny how in seaching for a good subject, we are sometimes led to another as well, but the two fabulous finds in here are perfect for each other, especially in this delightful fall view. The composition is just wonderful.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

THE CAMERA'S ONLY JOB is to get out of the way of making photographs. It's entirely an artist's eye, patience, and skill that makes an image. ~Ken Rockwell VISIT MY GALLERY

I used to look at places like this in Vermont and wish I could buy one and fix it up and live a sweet, cosy life with a husband and a dog or a couple of cats... which is kind of what I'm doing, only on the Cape... hmmm, how did I end up here...? Sweet image, PJ. And I see why you had your eye on the tree.

"The more we come in contact with animals, and observe their behaviour, the more we love them, for we see how great is their care for their young." - philosopher Immanuel Kant
I am not with gerry - I could not live anywhere witout electricity lol!
Lovely warm shades in this PJ - the framing emphasises the autumn colours but I think it would have stood well on its own without adornment.
I love the different textures and the air of isolation you have captured.

I love both - the tree and the little house. Very nice image with great fall colors.

The tree isn`t the first thing that I noticed.It was the house and a fine old one.The tree I didn`t pay notice too untill after I read your commentry.It did however work into this very well because it did not distract my eye in the least and added to the photo.A Great photo!
