Abandoned: Day 58

2008.03.16
Haunted?



Back door

Front door

Down the road from where I live sets this abandoned house. Most neighborhood kids will tell you that it is haunted, and I must admit there is something a little ominous about it. However, I resolved to make it my photo opportunity today.

ps Bree, your doorknob photo inspired the last two shots:)


Have a great week!

mamacita I used to see that house and think I'd like to fix it up. :)
I love the sepia doorknob!

Peche Great shots Julie!! I love the last shot very much, great contrast.
The second and third shots stand out no end for me though - I like the subject matter in both, but I also like the mystery - the gate especially, very well framed and the shot just draws me in and makes me want to know where it leads :)

focussed really lovely texture in #3....it is so intricate! With a bit of elbow grease this place looks like it could be a really cute.

ncshutterbug Love this set! Abandoned houses always make me wonder about the former occupants, and why the house was abandoned.

Anjie Julie, these are so beautiful!
1, 3 & 5 are my absolute favs, so so excellent.
What a story this old place must have to tell.

seabreeze These are wonderful Julie.I like #2,4 and 5....there is something about the textures of wood that I like.

PaperWings Beautiful shots, Jules! I love that red roof. I wonder what the story is behind the house...

oldbabe Oh, I love these kinds of pictures. This house has some personality. Hey, is 2 the outhouse ;-) ?

I love those old doorknobs. Can't believe someone hasn't collected those up.

I'm with the others who wonder what happened to the former occupants and why it is abandoned.

bamommy I love these shots. I bet it is haunted!

ScubaLiz Great set! Love them all - I'm glad you didn't let a few ghosts keep you away! Those old doorknobs are awesome, I agree with oldbabe, I can't believe they haven't been stolen. There's something sad yet fascinating about abandoned buildings. Nice work!

jwideman kinda looks a little creepy, but i like these shots!

KerBear These are fantastic... and I can definitely see why people would think it's haunted! Very creepy looking!!... Great shots though - way to take advantage of it! :) I really like the first one!

TheCrazyCroat Beautiful series. There's something so very intriguing about abandoned houses.

sendthestars I LOVE the picture of the house, #1, and the last one of the doorknob. Great set!

Queen911 The "haunted" home is wonderful, the shadows from the trees are perfect for this setting. Love the doorknobs also.
