Old Orchard in the UP

I am up in the UP of Michigan for summer school. We are basically in BFE nowhere near civilization. My friend and I were driving around and kind of got lost. We came across a old orchard with a small house near by. So the "shack" had a huge no tresspassing sign outside of it..oops! lol I didn't listen, thank God that no one was around! Inside was a sweet old Maytag stove in a kitchen and a old gross matress in another room. My friend didn't want me to go up the stairs because it was such a old fallen-apart house. He was lookin out for me :) Anyway I am very pleased with these pictures! I hope I can find some more crazy abandoned houses! Comment plz!

Beautiful Uglies

I never thought something so ugly as a power plant can turn out so pretty! With the sunset so perfect and the lighting amazing, I was able to take gorgeous pictures to show the beauty of the icky things in life. If you look hard enough you can find something beautiful about everything even the most unexpected places. These tracks were right outside of the Wade Power Plant (also pictured) near Purdue University. The flower was also taken near the power plant. This was my first sunset shoot. I was quite pleased. I realized that I like to go and scope things out and then come back to take pictures all completly prepared. Some of my friends that take pictures always carry all their equipment around. I will carry my camera but not everything. I know thats not being prepared and I wouldn't be ready for something that came up suddenly but I like scoping and coming back later. Perhaps I will change the better I get :P Hope you like! Please comment!
