Indiana Fall 2022 – Old and/Or Abandoned

With only one day left of our fall 2022 Indiana visit, I traveled the backroads from our cabin one last time.  Many trees were already bare, peak color was nearly all gone, it was overcast and threatening rain, so I hoped to find interesting barns, old homes or other interesting rural scenes to photograph.

More than leaves are falling here

Those three trees out front were probably planted with the anticipation of sitting on the porch in their shade some years down the road.  The child’s bike beside the house makes me think that a family lived here or maybe a child visited grandparents here.

Leaning Gate Barn

I saw numerous other interesting rural scenes similar to these, but either there was no place to pull off of the roadway to photograph those or those were set back too far on private property to approach without permission.

This is the final post for Indiana Fall 2022.

Faded Red Barn

I first saw this old barn and a nearby abandoned house, while in route to another destination.  I came back a few days later to photograph these old, rustic buildings.

Indiana, Fall 2022, Part 3 – Rustic Farm Barn and Sheds

Monochrome Barn

Traveling an Indiana backroad I saw a group of old, rustic farm structures in various stages of structural failure.  The roadway was narrow.  Parking alongside the roadway and photographing from the roadway would not be satisfactory nor very safe.  There was only one house nearby, so I stopped and knocked on the door.  A lady with her hair in curlers opened the door and I briefly explained why I was there, asking if it would be ok for me to photography those old structures.  She quickly said she was sure it would be ok, although, I’m rather sure she was not the owner, but maybe others have asked her this same question.

There was a short grassy, dirt road at the old buildings.  I parked on that dirt road, just off of the pavement far enough for safety and proceeded to walk around the area photographing the buildings from various angles.

After photographing the rustic farm building, I continued to meander around the backroads looking for other fall photographic opportunities.  This final photo is a teaser for the next post.
