October was a fantastic month for photo taking, and I especially took TONS of images with my iPhone. It's amazing how the camera in my phone has changed my day-to-day life...before the invention of the iPhone, my photo opportunities were very sporadic and had to be planned. Now, there is a photo op in every moment and I find myself snapping photos all day, every day!
I've edited a lot of my recent iPhone photos this past week, so I thought I'd share a few with Kim's Friday Finds. With the exception of the first one, taken in Charlottesville, the rest were taken at the abandoned prison grounds in Lorton, VA. I especially love the old window photos from inside one of the abandoned buildings - they're so striking with their broken glass, peeling paint, and lonely view through the window panes. There's also a photo of my husband at work with his own camera...we have a lot of fun together on our photo outings.
I'm hoping I'll get some good photos this weekend at the wedding in Ohio, too - the venue is at a farm and the wedding is in a beautiful, old barn. It should (hopefully) be very picturesque! Thanks for visiting. So long, October...see you next year.
Good grief what great photos you got with your iphone. These are super awesome, I am from VA so many great places to take photos in that state but you have really out done yourself my dear. I am in awe of these beauties.
ReplyDeleteExceptional shots! I just love the decaying buildings. So intriguing.
ReplyDeleteThese are just amazing! The window views are fantastic! Enjoy your weekend wedding!
ReplyDeleteSpecial serie, it looks indeed over for this building.

Wow Sherri I love the shots through the cracked windows . It looks like you had a great photo session.
ReplyDeleteWow, these are just amazing images! And to think that I live so close by but had no idea what treasures exist in Lorton. Loved looking at them all.
ReplyDeleteThe old window pictures are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWonderful captures, I love the window shots!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, favulous shots! The first one is a show stopper!
ReplyDeleteOh your weekend plans sound lovely - enjoy the wedding! Your Pictures are amazing - Very beautiful! It must have been a very special experience to be in the abandoned prison.
ReplyDeleteWhat SPECTACULAR photos! Absolutely stunning. Loved them, rich with fall colors. The photo with the trees reflected in that tall reflective building is amazing. My fave is the wall your husband is photographing. Cool old building, tons of character.
ReplyDeleteI would hang any of these pictures on my wall ... they are all wonderful. I love old and new, actually anything that lends itself to photography. You have captured so much feeling in these pictures that I am actually going to miss October, even though I hadn't even given a thought to its passing. Loved this ... I am so pleased that I stopped by.

What a marvelous old place to explore! Thanks for sharing them, they're so enticing.
ReplyDeleteSherri I absolutely love these shots! Especially the ones with the windows. I love the view through these amazing windows and the colors and depth. Awesome! thanks for sharing, and have a wonderful sunday! Nothing quite like photography is there/? Have you seen those little lens that you can buy for your Iphone. I nearly bought one recently as they look pretty cool, but i really do carry my Nikon with me alot, and have way too many lens alrready, so deferred. You might really enjoy one of those though. They do amazing macro shots
