Empty Properties

The last of these depressing houses. It boggles the mind to why 154 people would remain in a place with no servics to support them.

So desolate, despite the beautiful light. ~V

One would have to be very self-sufficient to live in a place like that.

My vision of what post-Corona mania will look like.

May have been someones pride and joy at one time. V

I imagine someone was very proud when this house was built, and would be sad to see it now

Nice image to show the neglect.

There is much to be said for "solitude". V

The bare trees add to the sense of despair, but unlike the houses the trees will be refurbished in the spring.

A superb composition and the long shadows adds a lot to it ! V.

perfect location for self isolation though...looks OK here, just needs a little work on the house, and a lot of works on the barren grounds..

A sad but interesting image Neil! V

Strong documentary of shot of this decay. I like your composition. I think a combination of money and the unknown keeps the people there. "V"

There are many who desire to live "off the grid" but you need to be a resilient type I'd say
