Reflections on a Weathered Door

A simple photograph of the entrance to an old weathered, delapidated, turn of the century house. Simple but intriguing on many levels. The low, wam sun brought out layers of paint colors in the door and facade as well as the texture of the exterio which captured my interest to start. But then I saw the reflections in the door glass panel. First, the blue sky and shadowed trees from behind where I was standing. Then, looking even closer, within that reflection the brightness of another interior window with golden autumn foliage on the other side of the home shining through.

Vinate Door Study

Warm sunlight brushed the wood of this two century old door and the stone of the entry to the old house to highlight the textures and weathered colors of the wooden door. If only doors could tell the stories of the families that walked in and out of them every single day,of how those families grew and thrived (or not), of who was the last to leave and why. As far as the photogrpahy, I loved how the warm ccolors were repeated in the door, stonework and autumn hued shrub.

Once Pride of the Village

A beautiful old Grist Mill stands abanonded but protected, surrounded by the last of the season's fall foliage color in Sussex County New Jersey. A stone pathway leads the eye through the scene where wagons once traveled to drop off and load cargo. With the sun low in the sky, its light warms the stone building and scene and creates long shadows across the path. Once a vital part of the canal village of Waterloo,the abaonded building stands among others in the village, as a reminder of the history of New Jersey and the surrounding areas. The mill, 3.5 stories tall, was built by the National Bisquit Company. The village is an open-air museum in Allamuchy Mountain State Park, open to the public from sunrise to sunset. Waterloo Village,which is on the National Register of Historic Places, is a restored 19th-century canal town.The community was at about the half way point along the journey along the 102 mile Morris Canal, which ran from Jersey City to Phillipsburg, New Jersey. The village had an inn, a general store, a church, a blacksmith shop (to service the mules on the canal), and a watermill. The trip along the canal took two-days and Waterloo was a convenient stop for canal workers to rest and get supplies before continuing their journey. .The village was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 13, 1977.

A vertical format view of the back side of a historic canal general store as it is reflected in the canal waters. The last of the golden leaves of autumn cling to tree branches while the ground and water are dotted with fallen leaves.

Blessing of Autumn
