I really love this one. The structure looks solid and the front porch looks like it could blow away if you sneezed. Excellent shot.

@pesotum74, thank you for selecting me as your winner! This is a first for me :) ... I spotted this on my way home from a day in the woods, took a back road and I think this was in Bath County, Kentucky. I wanted to explore, but with houses nearby, didn't dare.

@beebe_gzb, thank you... :) yeah, I wouldn't want to traipse about much around that porch...

Nice job!! I love the perspective on this shot. I can't say as I'd care to spend much time on that porch either. :-)

Great photo JP...looks like this old store had a close encounter with the twister kind. Did not quite push it over but scared it a whole bunch.

Great shot...

Once upon a time that was most likely a bright, cheery little gathering spot! Good for you to take a back road!

In S. Calif. we call this a fixer with real potential! Great shot and the columns almost look like cast iron sewer pipe. A real American Classic.

Nicely spotted, and the sense of kinetic energy in this shot is great. It really does look like it might go at any minute.

Whoa, she's leaning a bit. You can see the charm it once had if you look closely.

The front fell off earlier this year, too bad this place couldn't have been preserved.

I like those old benches. Your right and it should have been preserved.
