Silo, Candler County

An old, rusted white silo surrounded by trees and a clear sky.

As you can tell by things that I photograph, not everything I capture is literally vanishing. It’s still my focus and will remain so to document old farmhouses and barns, small town architectural landmarks, country churches and the like. But since population trends suggest that fewer people are living in rural America and more are being pulled into the cities for work, I think nearly everything that represents our rural heritage is worth recording.

    I agree Brian, I snap pictures of Silo’s all the time. There are lot’s of them on the Hwy. from Montezuma to Perry, but I’m sure you know that. Keep up the great work! I share your pictures on Facebook all the time.

        Thanks, and I agree too Brian. Bet you are also interested in seeing new “Un-rural” trappings placed on more traditional rural sights. Have you seen the wonderful mural painted on the peanut silos in Colquit?
