THE STINKHOUSE ON CRAB ISLAND by Lori Edmunds - Tuckerton Historical Society

Ian -- Thanks for sharing these. You've got me digging through my old photos....I can't believe with the many times I was there in the 60's I have only one very poor and distant shot of the place when it was still in use. I remember the big tankers that used to haul away the fish oil and they traveled by barge out to the island and back. And the sirens that sounded evey so often....I think it was to signal the barge was docking, I can't remember for sure. I know the bay near the stink house was the best place to fish! Ahhh so many memories....

One more from that abandoned house.

Abandoned building right down the street from my house...south florida really doesnt have the history of all of your photos, I was expecting so much when I got the chance to go in here and it was disappointing

Looks like you made the best of what was available. This one has potential.

 

[E-jeezy]

lol thanks...not all abandoned buildings are as "aesthetically" pleasing as some....that specific photo bugs me, I like symmetry and that is all kinds of unsymmetrical haha, but it is quite ominous looking

Edit: I just tried viewing it in b&w which looks much better

Great shot Rob. Also, great photostream at flickr. I believer you're the third or fourth photographer I know now (via internet) from Edinburgh. I like your shots of the fringe festival.

Thank you, Edinburgh with the Fringe Festival on was an incredible place.
Someone just quoted that line from Top Gun, 'a target rich environment'.
For photographers it was
