Ghost Town General Store

[invisible]

This is an image from my 2009 trip to Saskatchewan. It's the general store (or what's left of it) of the ghost town of Bents.

Thanks for looking ​

Did you shoot this on film or is the grain added in post?

Wonderful as always.

I find it absolutely fascinating that you can find all of these places. I search and search and all Ive ever found is roughly 4 places. Fascinating, awe-inspiring, historically mysterious places. Wonderful photography experiences. I guess that's what I get for living close to a city..

I shot it with a DSLR and the grain is indeed added

Thanks for the kind words, Mark. I live in the city too, and drive long hours on the weekend to find abandoned rural places like this. This one in particular was a 3-day trip – the exception, not the rule!

Terrific shot, but close-ups, man, close-ups!!

Haha! I know what you mean. I'm just going through a landscape kind of period so I don't have many recent close-ups of anything.

Nikon D300 with Tokina 11-16.

Thanks everybody for the nice comments!

I love how isolated it looks.

As usual Fredrico, it's a beauty. Funny though, the title brings me back to days of distant past. Can't seem to find it on youtube, but the artist is Les Dudek and the song is Ghost Town Parade. FYI.

Beautiful contrast in the building. Almost like an HDR infrared photo.

TOTAL CRAP









Ok not really but I just did not want to be like everyone else! Great job. I would hang that on my wall!
