"End of a Season" was inspired by an abandoned farm located near my home in Monee, IL. After driving by this scene numerous times, I was able to witness its slow, progressive decline. On one particular occasion, I decided to photograph this setting before it disappears all-together. The earthy colors of the rusted metal, dried crops and barren trees combine to provide a sense of melancholy emptiness to this "End of a Season" landscape.

Love this composition. "End of a Season" says "end of a farm life" to me ....reminds me of the farm where I grew up and which no longer has any remnants remaining. L&F

Thanks Carolyn! I appreciate your thoughtful insight… It continues to surprises me, how many subjects in my artworks no longer exist… Glad I was able to preserved their presence when I did.

Wonderful capture of this sad abandoned farm, Doug! A timeless pictorial commentary with incredible imagery and symbolism! Imagine all the once-thriving farms that have been destroyed over the centuries by bankers greed! L/F
Doug Kreuger replied:
Thank you very much Hanne! If you and I were to have a conversation on this subject, it could last for days… But I think we'd both change the conversation to a happier subject after just a few minutes… (-:
