I don't do a lot of night photography but with how short days get here sometimes its the only way to get an external shot.  These 2 shots are taken about 3 hours after sunset.

I like the B&W. But was hoping for more pics. ##:(

Ask and ye shall receive!!

I was putting together a blog post for this area.  This area is known as the Touchwood Hills.  It consists of a few ghost towns and rural churches.  I find it interesting because these towns did not exist on rail lines which is unusual for Saskatchewan because this province was built by the railways.  95%+ of the communities in this province are railway towns.  Everything on this post is all within a few miles.  The towns and churches were the support structure for countless small farms that surrounded the area at one time.  Over the years small farms have disappeared and now we have large scale commercial farms that are 10 - 20 times larger than the old family farm and with modern machinery they can operate these large farms with only a couple people.  With very few people around the support structure started to die and now all that is left is countless abandoned farm yards along with these old churches and halls.
