048: #121 Ghosts


The Cuyahoga Valley National Park bought this property up the hill from my home
and simply abandoned it to the whims of Mother Nature.

I look at the gazebo and memories come flooding back
-- ghosts of happy times in the past with music and laughter --
and the chill shade of death as well.

  2. I agree, the foggy effect makes it much more ghostly than a bright sunny day would. A cool picture of an interesting place.

  6. This image sure has a ghostly feel. One never grows old when you can have memories return to you just like when they happened.
