How sad it looks like it was a wonderful home once.well captured Mary
Mary MacADNski: You are probably right and it was a wonderful home at one time.
What a shame. Is it beyond repair, I wonder. (:o)
Mary MacADNski: It's hard to say, Rosalyn. It may have come to the end of it's life.

It looks close to falling into pieces. What stories it must have..
Mary MacADNski: It was probably lived in for over a century so yes, many stories.
I like, Mary! The smooth tonality is part of your style of photography and for that reason I am not going to you to say that I would like to see more contrast! I like the scene!
Mary MacADNski: I don't process the photos afterward. It was quite hazy that day.

Lick of paint, a few cats around the place, a couple of young kids playing outside...it will be like new.
Mary MacADNski: When are you moving in?
Very nice capture Mary. It must have been a beautiful and pleasant house to live in.
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Richard. I'll bet it was.

Superbly composed. What a shame that such a stunning house has ended up in this way. It must have been amazing when first built.
Mary MacADNski: It's a very typical home here. Mine is quite like it though in much better shape, of course.
This is rather sad. I bet it could be turned into a really nice place
Mary MacADNski: It looks like it's pretty far gone but with lots of money and time......

Where is it? I want it! Does it come with a horse in the garage, Mary?
Mary MacADNski: It's on Valleyfield Road and I think you have to build the garage.

Out in the middle of nowhere?? That's actually kinda sad, Mary. sad
Mary MacADNski: This is on a well-traveled rural road....next door to the shhe farm. I heard yesterday on the news that 6 sheep from the farm were killed by coyotes - just when I was featuring them on a blog.
Must have been a lovely house once. I wonder why it was abandoned?
Mary MacADNski: We will never know.

All that's missing is the big bad wolf huffing and puffing.
Mary MacADNski: I think you're about right. Some thought it might be able to be fixed up, but I think it would fall down.
