p.1 #1 · Abandoned cabin


Another shot from my Fall foliage adventure. This cabin has been deserted for years and it sits on the edge of a huge field nestled in between the Ossipee Mountain range in NH.

EXIF data seems to be garbled so K20D, Pentax 35mm Limited, ISO 400, 1/250@f/11.

Hey that's awesome! If it's really abandoned- I'll take it!

It looks pretty cool. It is a bit big though, so with scrolling it's hard to say for sure, but I think you could crop off most of the sky, there is nothing there anyway, and have the cabin with the tree's behind it. I would crop just below the top of the tree on the left.

I wasn't sure about the crop anyways so is this better? Yes, it truly is abandoned.

The crop in the second version is much more suited to the photo. Good work.

I agree....the crop is nicer. I like the image a lot. Old cabin in a lovely site, with killer fall color, and i like the grey day atmo and light.

I noticed the same thing, but when I zoom in it seems okay. Not as sharp as my 17-40L though. Perhaps the lens is soft at f/11 in the center Can that be possible

Thanks Barry. I was pretty happy that the clouds rolled in on this shot, I just wish they had moved out of the area when I was done! The cabin is in an area next to Conner Pond (1,000 feet elevation) in Ossipee, NH.

The crop really helped.

Doesn't look abandoned to me. It looks just right!

Here is a far away shot of the clearing with the cabin almost dead center of the image. You can really get a feel for how large the clearing is. I used my MkIII+17-40L for this one.

Beautiful photo
Stunning location, makes you wonder why the cabin was deserted.
Was the meadow farmed?
Is it a remote location?
The larger picture really draws me in.

The clearing is kind of in the middle of nowhere. The meadow was farmed at one point but not sure exactly what they farmed. I talked to a guy who lives in a house year-round on the edge of the clearing. He was a little nutty. The dirt road that goes up to it is very narrow, but follows a beautiful stream with native Brook trout in it. Once you get to the clearing it's kind of weird because it's so open. Glad you like the larger picture. Oh....there are actually a few large mountains behind the cabin but you can't see them due to the low clouds.

Too bad you couldn't see the mountains that you mentioned. That would have been very neat. Still nice though.
