Description
This site is the future home of Inborden Elementary and Enfield Middle schools, in Halifax County, North Carolina.
The building depicted here will soon be torn down, so I captured it before it was gone and lost forever!
The photo was taken on January 19, 2006 at 11:19am, using a Nikon D50 outfit, moments before the official ground-breaking ceremony for the new schools.
Thanks for looking! As always, your comments/rankings are welcome and so greatly appreciated!
Have a wonderful day!

Wonderful capture and colors!!! Bravo :)
I know you must feel sad about that...I would to knowing that all those memories there will be lost (visually).
Thats a school? Oooh...theyre tearing it down to build a new one there. Okay...duh! Looks like a very isolated and beautiful place. Like the crop. Have a great day. #:O)
I love the crop too! And the splendid colours ! Superb image! bravo!!!
This photo wil be nice memory! Great captured, and composed!
ITs kinda sad they couldnt find a differant place and kepp the historical one ... they are doing that to my Grandmothers house in Michigan to build a golf corse in April =breaks my heart .. fantastic and beautiful shot!
Excellent picture, but i think that you must show the trees tops! Excellent and nice evening Troy!
Really a pity to destroy this marvelous little house ! and a great idea to save this image, and this incredible and touching place. Then a page of history will be closed forever.... sad I think ! it's a beautiful shot again Troy. So peaceful, and a superb composition. Have a wonderful evening my friend. Hugs. V
I can feel a lot of old warm memories there. You should do a few more before itr's too late. Wonderful shot.
Great you shot this one before being torn down, a historical capture recording so well what will be lost! Impressive work, Troy!
absolutely fantastic troy.. and full of nostaligic memories...:)..:)
Another interesting,mysterious, ghost building--great shot, Troy!
What a most beautiful place to put schools!!! Is the building old/historical and are they tearing it down or leaving it? A most gorgeous shot og this area! Beautiful green grass and wonderful 'longing' view!
sad at the magnificent trees will be so much mulch. beautiful capture Troy
Crop and image are wonderful and pull at the heart. May I suggest a tad less sharpening? Then again, it is on the web and who knows. Thanks.
Excellent capture, hopefully they can hang this pic in the entrance hall as a reminder...
Pity... but if it for better. Superb capture Troy
Glad you got the shot before "progress" ruins it...beautiful !
Great to have the capture before the destruction.
And because you captured it, it will be forever..You are the recorder of history, charting the future from the past, in a way that is beautiful and when people view your works that house will remain alive...and you have such an expert eye for the things that need to be seen and need to be remembered...a simpler time that gives pause in the chaos..thank you Troy, for seeing what many do not and for bringing it to thier attention..thank you for sharing your heart with us all! Bravo and ssssh!! Perhaps gift the image to the new schools so they will have the history right then and there...A good way to get seen:-)(V):-)
What a shame.. Really a beautiful shot, love the warm feeling of it, with the grass shining in the sun. I was going to shoot some of the old buildings on my property when I was home but I didn't have time...maybe next trip.
