THIS is an OLD HOUSE

My curiosity of history is always piqued when I come across an old gem while driving rural roads. It's always a good day of exploring the North Carolina countryside when I bring along my friend Terie Christmas Davis http://wabisabiphotoart.com/.  Much of Terie's blog is written towards photographing things from the past. Terie grew up in this southern planet called North Carolina and speaks the local language. This comes in very handy when we run across a local wanting to know "What y'all doin' on this property photographin'?". Terie has already saved this Yankee boy with the New Yawk accent a couple of times. As a matter of fact, Terie usually strikes up a conversation with the folks and we get to learn all about the property. Sometimes we'll get a full history of the family who once lived there!

While riding around with Terie one day we came across this abandoned house not too far from my home in Denver, NC http://www.denvernc.com/. We didn't meet anyone that day so the history is a mystery. As I was photographing I noticed how the reflections of the trees and skies worked their way into old windows. The rusted shutter hardware and broken chair in the yard was just too cool! Please enjoy...................
