An old, weathered, Victorian, three-story, peach colored home with a white daintily trimmed porch on each level is being overgrown with vines and greenery. There’s lattice around the entrance way, a hole in the roof on the second floor and dark shutters throughout. Some newel posts fit the front lawn and to the sides are a few shrubs. It’s all very brightly lit.

A baby boy dressed in all red and wearing a heart headband, crawls on a white blanket littered with red rose flower petals.

A-frame, cherry wood church with a huge blue (and purple, black and white) stained glass window. It has two big, flat columns that support it and there's ambient light peaking in from the sides.

Looking down shot of a rodeo arena, with white fence surrounding it and advertisements all alongside. It's nighttime and you see triangle banners overhead and the glare from a large lamppost. A sliver of the crowd is in the bottom left corner and one person wears a cowboy hat. The ground is dirt and there's one barrel close to the stands almost directly in the middle at the bottom.

Cowboy Up

A monochrome picture shows the inside of a fast food joint through a dirty window. The only color is a red, Sorry, We're CLOSED sign. There's a large tub of straws next to the pass-through and the counter in front of it is nasty with caked on grime. In the background sits some sort of small, vintage machine and a bookcase.

A turquoise sky overlooks a broken sign. It's rusty and the glass panes have faded pictures (like old posters) peeling off of it, but the whole effect gives a somewhat (really cool) stained glass look. The wall it's attached to is partially tiled and reflects the turquoise color. There's also some painted murals on it, both beside and above. Some tribal type black and gold lines and the rest is indeterminable. A few solo, old-timely, lit bulbs hang on a string that haphazardly adorn the sign.

Tranquil

Day 26: Broken

On a stained concrete floor is lots of debris, mixed with an old, opened, large catalog (with pictures in the upper left corner) a plain, white, porcelain coffee cup on its side to the right of the catalog and an old-timed looking wooden sign in the shape and design of a pull-along camper that reads "The Smiths" and under that, "Bob and Theda," and also slanted us the word "Texas," all in burned in black slightly fancy font. This is in the center and just off its right bottom corner, there is a small white, porcelain creamer pitcher. Below this is a beige teddy bear face up with a red nose and black eyes, plus a faded, old yellow price tag on its forehead. Another teddy bear of the exact same kind (but face down and head toward the bottom of the picture) is across from this one in the far left bottom corner. Right beside its face is another similar designed plaque of a white daisy with a green leafy stem. The stain is shiny and darker on this one and the shake is a hexagon. The bottom 1/3 of the shot is littered with dead, dried up leaves and twigs.

Keeping Up With The Smiths

Day 24: Sweet

[So although I'll edit with abandon, I won't ever stage a photo. This is exactly how I found it. 😍]

A chandelier made out of white teacups.

A closed fine dining restaurant, with desolate minimalist tables and chairs awaiting guests. Shadows fall about and you can barely see a hint of chic green walls and one lonely picture adorning the walls.

B Cups and Buddy Holly
