Isolated in the woods of Cornwall
My sales work took me into the hills of Litchfield County, CT this day. As I was travelling through the rural Town of Cornwall, (pop. 1,450), I couldn’t help but notice this beautiful sweeping cornfield. As I looked closer I saw a home situated in the hills on the far side of the field. It was completely isolated with nothing around it as far as the eye could see. I’m more of a city guy but I’m sure this is a dream location for many folks. Double click on the photo for a larger view of what I saw.

For those that have read previous posts Cheryl is completely burnt out on photography and museums thanks to my having taken her…

One of the photo’s was taken on Half Moon Rd. in Cheshire, CT. These photographs were taken during late Jaunary of 2015 on a very cold frigid day with about 2.5 ft. of snow on the ground. I remember not being able to take any more photographs as my fingers were so numb I couldn’t operate the controls on the camera. However, despite the cold, it was fun. I got what I went there for! These beautiful horses were grazing on the grounds of…
