Tazewell County Virginia Mugs

I was driving through Tazewell County late one afternoon,and,the cows struck me as picturesque.

I was randomly shooting the border mountains between Tazewell County Virginia and McDowell County WV when I stopped to see if I could get a shot of the ridge in the distance. In the process I made a new friend.

This one struck me,the floor of this house is collapsing,I mean completely and utterly. But there were the pajamas hanging on the door,ready to for the routine of bedtime

I especially like this piece,this is as I found them,in the basement of an abandoned house in Pocahontas Virginia. Sepia is often a hit or miss proposition,but here I thought it worked just right.
