time & the weather...

The weathered car in Eligibles resides in the garage to the left of this house.
To see what resides just inside this door, take a look in the Samples Gallery.

Love the colors and the good weathery detail

Thanks bottles, did you see the pic in Samples of what is behind this door (plus the full house)?
Old houses (& people) with character are my favorite subjects too.

Another great shot jp, you sure have a knack for finding these old buildings! This is my favorite kind of photography, but I don't seem to run across it very often. I like the way the one door is partly open in this image. It's like it is saying "come on in if you dare" :-)

I'll add a few more pics to the Samples Gallery of some of the other structures in this immediate area.

I haven't tracked down the owner(s), Katherine, but my hunch is someone collected all these cars & buildings but ran out of funds for maintenance & is now either in a rest home or died intestate & all this is awaiting resolution.

If I get too nosy I'm afraid I might wind up owning a car or 2. ;)

Very cool-looking old, weathered house! I love the lighting and textures - it almost looks like a sketch. The car in the samples gallery looks to be in much better shape than the one in eligible. Do you know why this building and the cars are just left to deteriorate in the weather?
