• Barns,  Journey's

    Surrounding foliage keeps this barn upright.

    This sun sets on this old barn in RT 80 in North Branford CT. I think it’s close to it’s final curtain call.  If you saw the other side, which I was unable to photograph without entering their property, you’d see the entire wall was missing and most of the roof.  I don’t know how much longer this barn has before complete collapse.  I’m reasonably sure that the upcoming New England winter will cause it to reach it’s tipping point.   Too bad because it must have a been a beauty in its day.  I like old barns in various states of decline so, to me, the barn still looks beautiful.…

    Abandoned Barn, No.Branford, CT

    While travelling on Rt. 80 in North Branford, CT, mid February of 2015, I spotted this beautiful old barn.  I stopped the car, got out, and took this picture from the other side of the highway. It’s cropped rather tightly because there were numerous electrical wires cutting through the tops of the tree line.  In addition there were telephone poles and filthy colored snow from the plows in the foreground.  Ultimately the easiest solution was a tight crop. Photographed with a Fujifilm F100fd, 12mp, pocket camera.
