@yiannis krikis: thanks yiannis - one nice thing about pinholes - infinite dof
On my way to Austin I pass by a house that looks very much like this --even the hill and and appearance of the location is similar.

@Twelvebit: this is part of a recreated 19th century town. the buildings are original, but not to the site. it's an interesting place, usually nearly empty.
Great composition. Love the dark foreground with the old white house on the hill. Really nice!

@Marcie: thank you marcie!
I never work with a pinhole camera, this is so moody and great!!

@Paul van der Meer: they're fun. this particular camera is almost a work of art, very well made and attractive. of course, working without any sort of viewfinder is a bit difficult.
Pinhole... :) beautiful

@ordinaryimages: thanks jerry. it is abandoned, in a way. it's now a history exhibit.
When I opened the image - I thought it might be a pinhole. This is a classic. Beautifully seen and done. Fabulous.

@lisa v: i know what you mean. it isn't completely real, i guess - a demonstration of an old town. so, no cars, for one thing...
I can't but feel everything you show us. All filled with emotion and stories. Great perspective and vantage point.

@bluechameleon: thanks very much!
So simple yet so moody -- shades of Southern gothic but almost more Blue Velvet-ish

@Kurt: :) - thanks again
Very simple, like Kurt said above. I like how you compose the shot where the heavier toned turf is a bit more than half, making the house looking like a small model. Was this shot a while back? I see the trees are void of leaves.

@Howard F.: composition here is based on finger crossing - no viewfinder. i'll take the compliment anyway - thanks :). not sure when this was taken, but not really recently - i'm picking somewhat randomly as i start this thing.
