Abandoned Farmhouse by soboy5

Abandoned Farmhouse

I went for a motorcycle ride last week in the country and took my Nikon with me. I soon spotted this wonderful old farmhouse that is slowly being reclaimed by nature. Today's image will be the first of a series of shots I took on my ride. My two favorite hobbies are photography and motorcycling, so whenever I get the chance to combine the two, it is nirvana!

Best viewed large if you have the time...
WOW, What a magical building.....Straight out of a storybook! Brilliant capture! : )

What a fantastic find Danny! Love all those knotted and twisted vines gnarling their way all over the barn, bet that's a bit creepy inside!

WOW! this is so beautiful! I too love motorcycles. I have a Honda VTX1300 Retro. I don't ride it to much anymore. The hubby rides it a little and my son and daughter in-law ride it sometimes. My group of ladies that I rode with don't ride much anymore. Work and life gets in our way. LOL

I've ridden past this old farmhouse many times on my motorcycle, but participating in project 365 has made me much more aware of my surroundings, so I decided to take some images of it on my ride last week. It really is a cool old building, so much character and texture.
