Country Roads

Went out the other day on a small trip and decided to photograph some countryside. We found a beautiful little stone house, quite a few farmhouses and an old school. We also got to photograph some beautiful landscapes and to top it off a gorgeous sunset.

castle in saskatchewan!

I have searched for this house for years. I know approx. where it was but could never find it. Well this year I made it my mission to locate it. Not only did I find this farmhouse, I also gott approval from the owners to photograph this fantastic farmhouse.

I was not disappointed. This beautiful stone castle is built beside a small lake and is over a 100 years old. Its unique architecture built in field stone is one a kind on Saskatchewan.

bountiful prairies

Decided to go on a weekend trip to check up on some locations we have not visited in a while. We were very surprised by what we found. A complete ghost town now has people living in it again and fixing up the houses - never thought I would see this happen. We also found some other interesting things along the way and had a chance to do some photography before it got to cold.

We went out to do some photography of a ghost town we had driven past many times but never actually stopped to document. We took some time walking the quiet streets and documenting the buildings. It was a nice way to spend the afternoon.
