Ribcage, Hurricane Lake - a photo on Flickriver

            Sinar F, Fujinon 135mm f5.6, Kodak Tmax 100, orange filter.

This church, like many of the places I am drawn to, has lived a past life filled with people who have died, or moved on. It is starting to more rapidly break down in the absence of life - no paint protects the board any longer, and microbes, bacteria, and freeze-thaw are removing its flesh - I called this one 'Ribcage' because it is reminiscent of carcasses that you see all too often on the sides of the road up here - usually deer or coyote - fur still mostly there, but an eye socket or ribcage is often visible - poking out. I think this one has less than 5 years left.
