Title: The old family farm sheds. Many memories
Post by: Enda Cavanagh on March 27, 2014, 01:17:36 pm

Hi guys

Here is a photo of the old family farm sheds in Skreen, County Sligo where I grew up. It's a very personal image. I used to play there. I had my own vegetable garden plot just behind the trees. Although farming was never my thing I used to also sometimes help out with my dad and brother. Neither are with us now. It’s also where my brother passed away.

I visited Sligo at Christmas and visited my neighbours. On the way back I looked down the field and was struck by the scene. The lone light illuminated the site beautifully but it all looked somewhat sad. I guess it reflects how I feel about the place.

All comments about the watermark will be ignored!

Well until you did the edit I was going to comment that you forgot the watermark .... but I won't do that now.  :)

Very nice and evocative shot!

Good one, Enda. Rural night photography, there's something I hadn't thought of.

Thanks Scott. Luckily I had the light source to make it possible. Rural night photography on a Hasselblad H3D 39 has more than a few restrictions.  :D
