Have you driven through a ghost town lately? One that was once a vibrant community and is now the shell of it's former self?
Today's photo is one of my absolute favorites that Alison took this spring. We were in Lockhart, Texas, home of Black's BBQ, shootin' the town.
Lockhart, fotunately, is NOT a ghost town - it's actually quite a nice one, and the 100+ year old buildings on the town square house popular local businesses and have an air of weathered elegance to them.
One building on the corner, however, with fantastic old architecture caught her eye. Three stories tall, with arched windows, it anchored the corner with stately calm. The bottom floor, however, was empty, with a smattering of pieces of left-over furniture, moving boxes and debris.
As she was seting up her shot, she spied a truck barreling down the street, much too fast for a small downtown.
With but a few second to focus and snap, this is what came home on the camera.
