October 20 2006: The Tyre in the Farmhouse photo


20-OCT-2006	IMG_76683

Well, that tyre wasn’t there last time I visited! It’s now getting a bit risky getting inside this building, as I cannot see where the floorboards no longer exist…

I remember the last visit. :) I think some benevolent pbaser put it there for you, like a photo-fairy. :)

What an interesting find! A beautiful mess, with great texture and contrast. Be careful, Ray.

fascinating decay and discards! I admit - I'm a wuss... would never go there.....

I'm ever in awe of the buildings you find (and roe as well).. I find old places but this rural living means the plant and tree growth is so much I can't get near :S This is fantastic.. Makes you wonder who'd throw a tire inside? lol BEeeeeeeeeeee careful!

After the first day of the makeover on changing rooms the team were very "tyred" and a little "board" so they decided to get "plastered!". Sorry ;-). Great work Ray - Voted!

This building looks very decrepit and tyred! Mind your tread Ray - the last step could be the worst.

Better introduce yourself to the downstairs neighbors...

Wow,so many "yummy" textures in that place! ADal's right...be careful!

Adalberto Tiburzi		20-Oct-2006 20:33
Ray be careful. You are a floorboard of PBase! ;-) Adal

Dont let Bev see this, she's been wanting an old buiding to photograph for ages!Great find and lovely shot!

Antonis Sarantos		20-Oct-2006 20:15
Very interesting series! I hope it's your last attempt in this place...

Bob Floyd		20-Oct-2006 20:04
Any place like this around me that was not boarded up would have long sense become unsafe because of squaters and druggies setting up shop there! You have an eye for beauty where most would see none. Well done, Ray.

Amazing walls...great control of lighting

Marvellous shot of a great find,love the lighting!:-)

Lee's comment - 'tread' very carefully - boom boom! I must say that I find images like this really poignant - what have these walls seen and what's led to them getting to this? Sad!

Tread very very carefully!
