                  Where was this Bruce, something very familiar about it.

                      Robert, this is Just east of Watkins, Colorado, right off the approach end of Runway 35 at Front Range Airport (KFTG), where I often work. That’s how I spotted the place. It is an abandoned farm, and someone left the porch light on, which is quite annoying when using NVGs… lol

                      Love it too Bruce. I like the leading lines provided by the clouds. They look like they’re all heading to that barn to get out of the sun!

                      There sure seems to be a plethora of these old abandoned structures over there. What a journey it would be to travel the breadth of your country photographing as many as you can find to compile a book (I can hear Tom packing as we speak 🙂 ).

                          Thanks Graham! As soon as I am able, I’m going to get some off-road transportation so I can get to more of the ‘ghost towns’ and abandoned mines in the mountains. I’ve found many on google earth and it’s frustrating not have the transportation required to visit. I do think there is material for a book, perhaps on the old mines… Got me thinking now. lol Tom can come, as well!

                          Actually Graham, I wish I could visit Australia! I’d love to see the Outback and visit all the Aboriginal cultural sites. I saw a special called First Footprints where they visited a site that had been continually inhabited for 40,000 years. That really captured my imagination, and is on my bucket list, for sure!

                              I truly believe that Australia is a photographer’s paradise. Just wish I could afford to retire and go exploring.
