is this tired farm in Roswell? the green glow is bizarre.
No ... it's Iowa (really) The green glow was from a high intensity light that I would have liked to turn off, but it was not my farm. The orange glow is from the city of Des Moines about 15 miles east.
I like this image very muuch it has interesting shape and colour, taken at the right time as well,but there is too much road taking it from the centre would have avoided this, although there are ramshakle sheds they are more from decay rather than poverty I feel.the poverty theme isn't strong. However I have scored it higher because technically it is a good image.
This would be such a cool shot without the light behind the silo. It really doesn't work for me as a poverty photo though. I grew in farm country and had friends who where doing quite well and that had run down old out-buildings like this.
A nice image, a great picture of a farm..Tho I have no reason to suspect these farmers a poverty stricken. I t looks like so many other farms around me, that have some old buildings they don't bother getting rid of, but that they are not using anymore for various reasons.
So a great picture of a farm.. not a good image to depict poverty.
