I photographed this old farmhouse door a few weeks ago while on a trip to an abandoned house on Till Road. It is strange how nice and sturdy this door is, considering that the house is falling in around it. Notice how the pane of glass in the window beside it looks like the profile of a woman in an old fashioned dress!
perfect moments,
pass so quietly by,
timid and shy,
wrapped in your arms,
never lasts long enough,
and some days are just too rough.
For a long time now I have been fascinated with abandoned houses. Why would somebody spend all that time and effort to turn a house into a home, and then just abandon it to the elements? It seems like at some point, this house was someone’s dream and now it just sits and rots.
I photographed this little boy at the fourth of July fireworks. When we walked by he was intently pursuing the puppy and shouting “come back puppy!” I thought that was too cute. Notice how the kid is on a leash, but the dog is not!
I photographed this little boy playing in the fountain at Headwater’s Park, during the Three Rivers Festival. I love how he is dripping wet and his dad is trying so hard not to get wet!
devastation,
reaching out for a frozen touch,
blindly feeling for the last shred of warmth in your eyes,
I know you could love me if you tried.
hatred,
plunged back into this cell that is my mind,
grasping for brittle affection,
I know that you could see me if you didn’t shut your eyes.
release,
feel my self falling farther from the surface,
painful rapture as I give in to the oblivion and fall below,
I know you could heal me with your touch.
I photographed this tree along Ardmore Avenue, in Fort Wayne, Indiana. I love how this tree seems connected to all the other trees around it. The weird part is that this tree is completely dead, but is surrounded by living trees. I wonder what could have caused this?
