Description
I drive by this abandoned ranch several times a year as it is just a few miles from my home in Lassen County, California, USA. More specifically, it is just east of what was the small town of Amedee around the turn of the 20th century. On this particular morning, the area had gotten a nice dusting of fresh snow overnight which I think enhanced the scene with the old broken Aermotor windmill and neglected barn.
Ranching is one of the few industries in this area and I still see cattle and sheep ranging on adjacent properties quite frequently. Hopefully this place will be see use again one day; thereβs a very faded βfor saleβ sign on the post where I shot this image.

In addition to the banner, I am adding this more permanent recognition of its FEATURE on the homepage of A TREE OR TREES IN BLACK AND WHITE. I try mightily to feature only images that would be at home in a juried competition. No doubt that this image fits that bill. CONGRATULATIONS! And consider adding your image to DISCUSSIONS "Please post your featured photograph here" for greater, long-lasting visibility.
