    It is time to stop striving for the so-called american dream and live within the means of the world.

    That is so true. I have seen that more in small towns in the mid west. A wonderful image. I really like the tones and the shadows.

    Radio Shack’s motto once was “everything we sell was state of the art at one time.” (Or so I heard). You can see where that got them (bankrupt)! I love this sky, and the quaint bui;dings beneath it reek of nostalgia.

    This is a timeless image, played out all across the country.

    The statement is sad, but true. Your image feels lonely – I always feel badly for abandoned homes.

    Belle composition. Mais pourquoi abandonner de si belles maisons ?

    No doubt is was once home to families that have now moved on and away. If it could talk it could tell some stories

    I like the tones and shadows in this fine shot.

    Plowden was certainly telling it like it is and your picture illustrates it perfectly!

    Indeed. This is an aspect that I have difficulty understanding of your culture (which I admire).
    I like this image.

    It looks like a place built specifically for some experiment.

    Lots of the small towns in the Midwest have many abandoned buildings. The town I grew up in is almost unrecognizable any more.
