Fish Family Farm, Bolton CT
Fish Family Farm Creamery 20 Dimock Ln Bolton, Connecticut From what I read on their facebook page this farm is a favorite of the locals. They sell their own milk and ice cream right on the premises in their farm store. The milk truck reminded me of my youth where it was common place to see milk delivery in glass bottles. My Great Grandmother still got milk delivered right up until around 1975 when they stopped delivering. There would always be a layer of cream that rose to the top which she’d skim off and save for her coffee. They’d leave the milk inside the milk box which normally was…

Beautiful aging barns in Woodbury CT
Nicely maintained and structurally sound cluster of two barns and a shed in Woodbury CT. The barn on the right is not fully seen in the image. SUGGESTION: While photographing I walked up and down the roadway shooting these barns from various angles in my reflective vest. At one point the homeowner was in the driveway and glanced over at me quickly. Very politely I said, from the roadway, that I’d like to explain what I was doing. Still without setting foot on the property and making this person feel uneasy I explained that I’m just a hobby photographer who travels around the state photographing old barns. I explained that…

Southbury CT Barn
This is a composite photograph of three images: Barn and lawn were photographed in Southbury CT on 01/05/17 with a Nikon D7100 and Nikon 18-55. 1/200th, f11, ISO 200. Pond, tree’s and surrounding foliage were photographed on the property of Lyman Orchards in Middlefield CT on 10/22/12 with a Sony Nex 7 and Sony 18-55. 1/100th, f11, ISO100. Fence – info not recorded. I created the composite, for artistic reasons, because the setting where the barn was photographed was a winters day in January and there were no leaves on the tree’s and all the foliage was dormant.
