Yes, you are still on my design blog. No, I have not taken up smoking or the cause of the tobacco farmer, but I am taken with the tired, rustic beauty of abandoned tobacco sheds in North Carolina. (All photos by me.)
I was in North Carolina with my family visiting our friends over the 4th, and as we went here and there I kept being drawn to these sheds. There was something so beautiful and so tired about them, languishing in the hot summer sun, defying defeat. So, I made my girlfriend take me out early one morning to capture some images. And yes, if you saw from your window earlier this week a woman taking pictures, that was me in your field, in my pajamas and bed-head, with coffee waiting in the car.
Here are more...
And here, in honor of the 4th of July and love for country , I end with this...
Talk to you soon,
Carol

Carol, these are so cool and I am with you, they are pretty fascinating to look at. I think the black and white images are perfection,Kathysue
ReplyDeleteCarol,
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! I love the texture of decay. It was very smart to do them in B&W.
I love them too. Our house came with an old shed. All we are going to do it put a new roof on and leave the rest.. It just holds garden tools, I wish it was "pretty" but I can't part with the old thing!
ReplyDeleteWOW! Those pictures look amazing posted in black & white. I love those sheds and had a fun time taxiing you around in our pajamas and bedhead! Miss you already!
