Behind the Lens # 6 ~ 52 Weeks / Photograhy Blog | Idaho Scenic Images

Jul 10

So much can change in just 52 weeks. As I drove by this abandoned structure on Interstate 84 in Idaho, something internally told me to turn around. I listened to the quiet whisper, and decided to photograph the rickety old wooden building with the American Flag draped over it. 52 weeks later I learned that it was a former schoolhouse, and was lucky enough to have met one of the last students to attend there in 1954 at an art show I was selling at. Little did I know at the time, but by turning this image into a black and white capture, then coloring the flag back in, it would turn out to be one of my best selling captures to date. So much can change in just 52 weeks.
