the old garage

The edges of Livingston Parish are not without old abandoned houses, homes, businesses, or barns. I could do an entire book focusing on just them alone. Some with tons of character, others that are just another abandoned building. I passed this particular spot a couple times during my weekend in Louisiana, when I decided to hop out and finish up a roll of film with this garage. Standing directly in front of the building I quickly composed this shot, filling a bit more frame with the grass that had overtaken the front yard of the place in order to emphasize the empty, gaping doorways. A decent shot that I increasingly like the more I look at it, mainly because of the texture that the grass gives to the shot.
