Prairie Icons in the Night




Welcome to the historic ghost town of Rowley, Alberta!  I love visiting this place.  There is certainly a 'prairie spirit' that continues to reside where residents no longer live and the Rowley Community Association has certainly worked hard to maintain this historical gem!  Filled with history and historic buildings, the grain elevators were saved from the wrecking ball and continue to stand as majestic prairie icons.

  2. On, Terri, I can see I received some great night time photography tips from someone who really knows what she is talking about! Spectacular perspective on the first two, showing passage of time, the leaning elevators, farm equipment...everything...Wow! The Milky Way was really twinkling for you!

  3. Hey T...who said it's too dark to plough! You took the real and turned it into the mystic. That's how art is made...FANTASTIC! My folks are back in the house now. They're having a little drywall replaced in the basement but that's about it...basically nothing compared to most.

    1. Hi Dennis! So good to hear from you! Thank you for the wonderful compliment! I was really pleased with how these shots turned out! I need to go back and take some more! Glad to hear your folks are back home and that their home received minimal damage. That is good news.
