Lowmansville Kentucky Abandonded House

01.24.10

Just outside of Prestonsburg, Kentucky I drove past this house thinking it wasn’t much. But just around the corner I stopped for a Dew and decided to turn back around and take a closer look. I’m glad I turned around because I really enjoyed shooting this house, and I got to meet a Floyd County Sheriff! I thought I was headed to jail, but he turned out to be a nice guy. He did tell me to leave, but actually followed me around while I shot. It’s like he knew he should have made me leave, but wanted to let me stay. All said and done, he let me shoot everything I wanted to!

Here’s the rest of the gallery. Enjoy!

Grayson Kentucky Mail Pouch Barn

01.24.10

I was on my way home after a very long day of shooting through east Kentucky not quite knowing how I was going to get home when I “stumbled across” Grayson, Kentucky. Which is the eastern end of the AA Highway, a straight shot home. Right as I pulled on the AA Highway I ran across this Mail Pouch barn. It’s always nice to be surprised by one of these, afterall I had spent my day driving 4 hours to shoot one further south (which I did), so this one a welcome added bonus for the day. The lighting was very bad. Almost dusk, just all around bad light but I wouldn’t walk away without shooting it. I will go back at some point and re-shoot this one.

Here’s the gallery with the rest. Enjoy!

Saylersville First Church of God

01.24.10

I found this little church on my way to Prestonsburg, Kentucky last week. I typically stop and shoot these “little white churches” and go on about my business. I often find them on my way home from a camping trip on Sunday mornings. I’ve thought many times about stopping and attending a service, but I’m paranoid they may be snake handlers! Joking aside, maybe one day I’ll work up the courage to stop in one of these little churches.

Here’s just a couple more. Enjoy!
