I have passed this old house many times, and it has always spoken to me of times past. Capturing that sense has, for me, been the challenge and it has taken a number of attempts. With the right lighting, this house can look very sinister, but to me it has always spoken of the peace and joy that she contained when she was used by a family.
I hope that essence has been captured and you too will get a sense of the depth that this old house contains.
I have noticed a change this year in how I am seeing things. For a long time I saw my world as mostly brown. And it is that, with fall and spring..not to mention huge fields ready for harvest. This year though, I have found myself concentrating on the greens and blues. They were always there of course, but I missed them. This year, for what ever reason, these colours are all so much more vibrant to me that capturing them has been a real joy.
It will of course only be about another month, then the fields will go gold and the harvest will begin. But for now.....Its Green and Blue....
I have to wonder why a home of this size and style would be left to ruin .. why would someone just leave it?

In this specific case I am not sure, but there has been a pattern of people leaving the land and moving to town. Also farms have gotten much larger with large machinery, so that means less people are required to keep them working. All in all, the rural areas are being depopulated. In the end...some houses will simply be abandoned.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
Although `DEVlANT joined our community only a year ago, he's made sure to make his mark in as many ways as possible.

His inquisitive mind and enthusiastic personality is reflected in every part of the community which he reaches out to. Always eager to bring suggestions and feedback to us in a positive way, `DEVlANT shows a maturity way beyond his years. It's with great pleasure that we award very first Deviousness of 2010 t...
