This photo was taken at an abandoned house in the Qu'apelle Valley north of my home.Time
I LOVE to read, It has always been a dream of mine to own my own library actually. I was doing a photoshoot for a friend just on a whim one day after work, around 3 or 4 pm. I seen the burnt book sitting on the step and it was the first thing I went to. When inspiration strikes, snap!Lighting
