This was a lovely schoolhouse. I imagine a many children received excellent educations there, in spite of (or maybe because of) it modest physical presence. Beautifully photographed. V

This is both beautiful and eerie. The absolute abandonment and birds in the sky create an almost ominous mood. BV.

This image really tugs at you; you can almost see and hear the children from long ago. Perfect! V

Somehow sad and thought provoking. Great work.

strong image..the cries of the crows evoking the long gone cries of school children in another era...V

Ghosts are lurking about, I'm sure. Good thing you escaped!

Very cool moody shot. I like the angle, lighting and the tree and the birds are a nice bonus. "V"

This must have been a beauty in its day..the stately old tree, the stone fence, the beautiful countryside. Well seen and well captured.
