Old Buildings Lattimore NC 162a

 
These are from a visit to Lattimore quite some time ago. In fact, I wanted to go today and photograph an old house there. I've been meaning to for quite some time, ever since I got my new camera. Didn't get the chance though. There are some cool old buildings here.


 
This was probably a business of some type a long time ago, maybe a newspaper.

Strange Photo

 
 
This very strange photo was taken by Eastern Paranormal Society and he sent me the photo on facebook and asked what I thought and wanted me to share it.
I'm very interested in what others think of this photo. Not what you see. After looking at all the comments on facebook it's pretty apparent what everyone sees. One woman thought there was a demon in the picture. I don't see that at all. I want to know what others think.
Being a skeptic I always go for the most rational explanation before declaring it must be something haunted. The picture was taken in one of the oldest houses in Buffalo NY during an investigation that the team was conducting.
 Awhile back while visiting a cemetery I took pictures with multiple orbs in them. My first reaction is that it must have been dust spots on the camera lens that created the photos I took but I don't know. That particular camera is very light sensitive and I can't rely on anything strange that comes out of it. Of course some cameras may be more sensitive to paranormal anomalies than others.
My husband swears the photo has been photoshopped. I don't use photo shop so I have no experience with it. And am not so sure.
 
Anyway, very interesting photo and would love to know what others think of it.

Abandoned House SC


Visit my other blog at http://nature500.blogspot.com and my websites at http://sassygrrl32.hubpages.com and http://www.divinemystick.com.

This is a simple block house on the edge of a large cotton field in South Carolina. It had electricity at one time and the cinder brick construction makes me think mid 20th century. No roof makes me think the tin was removed to reuse somewhere else which is common. I try to imagine the simple existence the occupants must have led. Work, eat, sleep. The middle picture is the Google street view of this place in happier times, yet still abandoned. This picture was taken by someone else.

Abandoned House Brightsville SC


Visit my other blog at http://nature500.blogspot.com and my websites at http://sassygrrl32.hubpages.com and http://www.divinemystick.com.

This old farmhouse is near Brightsville, SC. It appears to be 1880-1910 or so. I think someone started to fix it up and just quit, maybe it was too far gone to repair but they don't have the heart to tear it down. Notice the side is starting to lean. The yard is well maintained but the home is derelict. Shame too, it's a nice large place with a couple of buildings in back. I imagine it was quite a place in it's day. Those days are long gone unfortunately. In the larger photo you can see the interesting window glass treatment and the third window on the side that was removed and filled in at some point. Makes me wonder why. The porch posts are certainly not the originals, they would have been better than 4x4s and I suspect they might be in the lumber on the porch. I wonder how many still nights were spend sitting on that porch talking with family and friends after a long day. This house was very nice. This was taken by someone else.
