I suspect it wasn't abandoned for long before being bulldozed for
development into a subdivision. Might be interesting to see what a photo
from the same position shows today.
Well ... the idea of comparing today with then is interesting. I suspect
the photo itself might be kind of boring.
Kind of sad. Whenever I see an abandoned building I wonder about its
(former) inhabitants what they did in the building, how many
different functions it may have performed in its "career".
I like this shot for the subject matter but also for the composition
and rendering. It's just got this "feel" to it...
Cheers,
frank

Subject: PESO -- Abandoned
This is part of series I started a few years ago, and dropped, about the
rapid changes happening in my immediate vicinity. The place, Griswold
Airport, one of hundreds of small local private aviation fields that at
one time dotted the countryside. It was bought by a developer of luxury
condominiums, this shot was taken about a year after it had shut down,
no one even bothered to remove the windsocks.
