Downtown Granby, Vermont was bustling with activity when I took this photo. The three buildings shown are a chapel/church, a Post Office, and the Town Clerk's office. There also is a schoolhouse just beyond the bend in the road. The town was chartered in 1761, had a population of 52 in 1970, and exploded to 84 as of the 2017 census. Granby was the last of two towns in Vermont to be hooked up to the electric grid, which occurred in 1963.
I saw only one car in the half hour I was at this location. They smiled and waved as they passed. Most of the residents in these small rural towns throughout Vermont and New Hampshire are very friendly. However, that may not be the case in the bordering town of Victory, which I drove through to get to Granby. Victory has a population of 62 as of the last census, and is known for its decades long "Hatfield versus McCoy" type feuds, keeping the local county sheriff busy. Just Google "Victory Vermont feud" for details. Maybe they are friendly to outsiders like me though. I don't know, as I saw no one at all in my drive through Victory. I suspect they may be afraid to go outside. By the way, Victory was the second of the last two towns in Vermont to be hooked up to the electric grid.
This scene looked to me like it was out of the 1800's. Even the main road through town is unpaved. So I thought it was appropriate for a black and white photo.

***** Thank you for your view, comment and fave.
I invite you to visit all my photo-gallery. Thanks
This is a view you get used to driving around Kangaroo Island. Fairly straight roads with trees on both sides. Not the most scenic drive but interesting.
After all the processing I wouldn't call it a photo, more of an image or graphical artifact.. But I kinda like it so here it is..
Something different today.
These old cedar roots found in Rainier's Grove of the Patriarchs fascinated me. Click.
Enjoy a treeific Thursday!

Tensioning there was a tree that immediately looked at what I was doing and probably also wanted to get into the frame! I could not refuse him!
Besides the autumn poets sing,
A few prosaic days
A little this side of the snow
And that side of the haze.

This beautiful old tree instantly reminded me of the magical tree in Enid Blyton's series of books, which had homes for little beings / creatures in the trunk, and where the spreading branches at the top of the tree held a different magical land each day - you had to be careful not to linger too long or you would be trapped when the land moved on, and have to stay there until it came back to the tree again.
This tree is in Buena Vista Park where we walk the dogs....I think its the only Oak in the whole park, and theres alot of Awesome tree's in this park!
Langdale Tree, a shot going back nearly 2 years ago at a time when i was going through a serious illness and this was a shot i took about 3 weeks before a major operation. It still sticks in my head i shouldn't really have been out in such bad weather but i am still glad i did. Langdales, Lake District, Cumbria.

Aka @tonywoodphotography and myself decided to hit the road a couple days ago in search of some nice foggy misty woodland scenes
Arrived at location still dark and spotted Orion constellation which will be the next thing we will be shooting regarding the night sky
As the light started to show up we got to work in the forest still barely being able to see so focusing was a nightmare but continued walking about and finding new compositions after a while the fog lifted so we went back to towards the cars and checked out a spot on foot further along the road and saw some trees that looked nice but a fence was hindering our view so walked along alil further and saw this tree and WOOOOW god rays galore we were going nuts all that could be heard was autumn sounds of the forest and the distinctive sound of shutter release clattering from our cameras as we were filling our boots up with this scene.
at the Park Series ....

My neighbor's tree was gorgeous this fall but it looked much better at the reservoir - transplanted pixel-by-pixel!
The Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest, home to some of the most gnarled and photogenic trees you may ever see. These trees are known to be the oldest trees on earth at an elevation of 10,000. Some of these trees are as old as 4,000 years. A storm came in so I did not get to shoot my night shoots so I must plan another trip after the winter.
