Thanks for viewing and for spending time with this, Les. I do have problems with lines when the shot is taken at an angle, like this. To me, the stove on the porch is tilted to the left in your version. I have a tripod head with a level on it. Maybe I should drag that out and use it.

Thank you Jack.

Amazing. Your perception of her is totally accurate, at least to the extent that I know her.

I am learning more and more what makes you such a sensitive photographer.

I would just reiterate everything Bill said. So I won't. I'll just enjoy your marvelous picture. There are times that you just knock the ball out of the park. This is one of those times.

But I couldn't resist the patterns and textures in the old tree.

Thanks for looking.

Mariela and Gabriel, thank you. When I got there, it had begun to rain and the sky was gray. A little drama there would have been nice, but I still thought the scene was worth capturing.

Critiques always much appreciated.

"Despair" wasn't my photo. It was a self-portrait by a photographer friend in a nearby town. I too really thought it was powerful. I wanted to show her that it would be well received here on PhotoNet. But the ratings were low, and I took it off.

Please render your verdict.

I see Hopper in this. And I like Hopper.

I also see cold. My hat's off to you.

Nice picture.

Maybe a little too much blue. But a lovely picture!

Thanks for noticing this, Jack. It is one of my favorites. Perhaps my knowing that this old house is now gone reminds me yet again of the transient nature of life. A child played with a toy in that house, and there is now no trace that the child, the toy, or the house, was ever there. It is a reality with which we have to make our peace.

You are so right. I do suffer from style deficiency, Maybe I'll grow out of it. However, I have looked back at my old pics, like this, and realized that I'm shooting the same kinds of scenes now. So at least I've remained consistently inconsistent.

Thanks Ben and Anna - for your time and comments.

Died in the 1980s.

It is nice light. Hard but controlled.

Your portraits very often have a very comfortable feel, as here. She seems at ease and natural.

Thanks! I may be wrong, but I don't think this is the season for straight documentary photography.

I think there is a kernel of truth in stereotypes. It is the generalizations that create the problem. These kinds of places did/do exist. But outside the area, they may be the image people have of Appalachia. Hopefully not.

Thanks so much for commenting.

If I'd known that the D70 could take pictures this good, I would have held on to mine!
