Some photos to share

[redfirepearlgt]

Thought I would share a few photos I have taken over the past 6-8 months of travel. It has been my hope to capture relics from a different time and life style that truly wasn't so long ago. You will find photos of old barns, a gas station, an old bait shop, and soforth. Much of this represents rural small town USA that may soon disappear altogether. Photos are from Indiana, Ohio, and Michigan.

Sean this wind powered water pump is located on US13 in Amish Country just south of Middlebury, Indiana. This site was what inspired me to get back into photography again.

You are very kind. There are several top notch guys on here that know waaaayy more about photography than I do and are much better believe me. I appreciate the kind words however. Hope everyone enjoys.

Sorry these aren't cars but I have been wanting to immortalize a little of the lost USA. The small farmer that is extinct and the little po-dunk towns like the gas station in Alfordsville, Indiana which is no longer open. That happens to be my home town as well. Many a great day was spent there when I would go down home in the summers to visit my Grandpa who was also a farmer. THanks again and all have a great week.

Thanks. One day I hope to create a website that immortalizes these little towns and the US farmer of the early - mid 20th century before farming started to become a corporate technically sophisticated business.
