Looks like businesses are closed up. I love the image but sad for the town.

The trees will win in the end. V

Love your perspective. I'm sure that there's more to the story but with all the rain that we've had, I can see how it can quickly get out of hand.
Janet Donnelly14-Jul-2013 18:21
Excellent lighting and composition Karen! ...... but looks like a little TLC is in order. ~V~
Frank Brault14-Jul-2013 16:53
Fantastic work! You are brilliantly and artfully capturing the typically unnoticed alleys of your town. V
Colin Storey13-Jul-2013 18:13
Wonderful colours and light. v

Returned to nature. I like the warm tones and greenery and a fine capture too. V

Ah! An open house. :) V

Excellent shot of this house in disrepair...love the clarity and warm light....V

Superb capture of neglect. V

Excellent lighting and composition Karen! V
A once loved property :(
Janice Dunn13-Jul-2013 05:17
Needs a bit of tender loving care I think. Sad when properties start to fall around us like this

Light and shadow are good foils for the buildings...one in use a good contrast to the derelict neglected one overgrown with vegetation...V
Walter Otto Koenig13-Jul-2013 01:35
Fascinating sharp details as Mother Nature reclaims this house. "V"

Unfortunately, this scene is repeated all over the US!
Mike H.13-Jul-2013 01:14
Excellent detail in a challenging lighting situation, Karen!
People were happy here once..
Jeff Real13-Jul-2013 01:04
Scenes like this really captivate me and I love how you portray them ~V~
Jean D13-Jul-2013 00:47
In general most people stay away from dilapidated areas. You have taken the time to record the moment thus create more of an awareness to be passed on to others. ~V.

Good colors and light. Americana.
janescottcumming13-Jul-2013 00:38
Lots of alleys in your town. Nicely composed, great colors and light. V
Chris Spracklen12-Jul-2013 23:29
Looks like a place that needs a little t.l.c. Karen.
Sharp shot in nice light. *V*
bill friedlander12-Jul-2013 23:18
Nature taking over where man has left off! Excellent detail front to back! V
Carol Rollins12-Jul-2013 23:10
An excellent shot of this old abandoned building with the newer-looking building beyond.
A really great shot, Karen. ~
Simon Chandler12-Jul-2013 22:15
Great urban image with great clarity. v
John Lamb12-Jul-2013 21:55
Shame to see empty buildings when there are so many homeless in the world. Beautiful tones Karen.
Mairéad12-Jul-2013 21:47
Always a shame to see old buildings neglected like this and it's amazing how quickly nature stakes her claim.
Lovely light. V

I find old buildings like this, particularly when surrounded by lush vegetation, to be very compelling and very picturesque, as your lovely shot shows well. V
laine12-Jul-2013 21:34
makes a great subject and looks very solid still
J. Scott Coile12-Jul-2013 21:10
The often forgotten backstreets.
Helen Betts12-Jul-2013 20:57
The lush greenery makes up for the decrepit state of the building. Very nicely captured, Karen, and again I love the warm tones. V.
