The Australian outback is a harsh climate at the best of times. From drought to flood this old homestead has survived the test of time. Once a farmers family home, this wonderful piece of Australian culture and history now provides some shelter to roving cattle from the blistering 38+ degree celsius temperatures, and humidity at times greater than 90%

On our way to Carrizo Plain, we came across this homestead. Those yellow slopes behind looked pretty. So we immediately stopped and took some shots of the scene.

I'm revisiting the photos I took in southern Utah, northern Arizona, and northern New Mexico in 2009, reprocessing some, adding a few, and deleting others.
Just west of Patterson Guard Station is Homestead Flats. A large meadow with East Creek running through it. Taken with a Mavic drone using the 180 degree Panoramic feature.
Modoc National Forest, California.
It was reported to be the 'Most photographed homestead in Canada'. Managed to grab a pic before it was demolished in June 2023.
An old homestead north of Bend, Oregon, with Mt. Jefferson in the background. Sorry I have been so busy! Have a great time!
I have visited this fine old fieldstone farm many times. It's in a magnificent setting.

This abandoned homestead is near Donalda, Alberta. A sign at the gate said "Hammarberg Homestead - 1907." I'd like to thank mother nature for cooperating and giving me a great sky to work with.
This century old house succumbed to the wreckers ball in the fall of 2011. It has been replaced by two, less than photogenic, new homes. Sad!
Located at the Humpback Rocks Visitor Center along the Blue Ridge Parkway, this example of a mountain dwelling is one of several buildings that make up an exhibit of a 19th-century farmstead.
Nelson County, Virginia.
Took a trip to Central Oregon this last weekend. Weather was very "springy" in that there was a little bit of everything, changing regularly every 5-10 minutes. This, of course, made for great clouds.
An old farm structure adorned with autumn colors at Noah "Bud" Ogle's Place along the Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, TN.
The Great Smoky Mountains offers such rich and fascinating history of the first settlers and their way of life, and much of the buildings are very well preserved.
I got a chance to explore this homestead in more detail this season, with the companionship of my wife whom truly enjoys historical sites such as this.
As we hiked onto the property this scene caught my eye, just past the main farm house. The colors hugged this old building so beautifully, and I hope I was able to capture the feeling of his neat spot in the forest?
Fall is definitely my favorite time in the Smokies, and I can't wait to return here again and again.

This photo was taken from the old homestead just outside of Goldendale Washington; the view is of Mt. Hood to the south. From the homestead you can see four mountains, Hood, Saint Helens, Adams and Rainer.
Thanks for taking the time viewing my photo, I welcome any feedback you might have good or bad this will help me to become a better photographer in the long run. Thanks in advance.
Near Badlands National Park, South Dakota; the sod house, on the left, was built in 1909. An old cabin, on the right, was added to the home some years later. This old homestead is one of only a few original sod house homesteads still in existance.

McKinney Falls State Park is in the center of an early Texas land grant that originally fell within the impresario contract of a Texan hero, Ben Milan. Ten acres of the land were transferred to Santiago Del Valle who at that time was Secretary of the Mexican government, and who had previously served in the Mexican Congress. In 1835, Del Valle sold a portion of his land to Michael Menard who helped found the town of Galveston. Thomas F. McKinney was one of his business associates and bought the Del Valle grant in 1839. His family occupied the land but sold almost all of it off by the time of his death in 1873. Some of the land remained agricultural and became the City of Del Valle, the north tract became urbanized, and the remainder is preserved in the park.
McKinney was also one of Austin's first 300 colonists. He settled on Onion Creek and became a breeder of racehorses.
