In Days Gone By


I took this just over the Georgia state line in a place called Graham, Alabama. It looks like it might have been a busy place at one time but all that's there now is a convenience store on the corner opposite the tractors.

WOW dot!!!
This is a photoof my heart, just a view walking out of a "bonanza" movie, I like overall sepia and B&W photo's over natural, it depends of , whats the subject.

Is this a recently made photo? Or made a longer time ago? I'm just wondering...

Love this picture that looks like it could have been taken years ago.We have scenes like that all over our area.Looks so peaceful and quiet there.A good place to get away from it all for a big city dweller!!

It really looks like the old days.
I don't stop, I like blogging and the comments of other bloggers and their blogs. Thank you for visit my Norway-blog and your translation was good, we ALL got wet socks and the last slice of bread was for the bat. The blue sky is a view out of the airplane window.

I so love how modern cameras can now take Sepia pictures...I never think of using that option on my camera! lol Wonderful picture and it certainly does look like it could have been taken back in the early 1900's! xox
