I’ve been following Ghosts of North Dakota<\/a> for a while now and have been eyeing up various locations to photograph. \u00a0This site has no shortages, but only seeming endless supply of possible places to shoot. \u00a0Cyndie and I had an opportunity recently to go to North Dakota and search for abandoned structures to shoot. \u00a0We used this site to pick out a few areas of interest to begin. \u00a0We figured that we would wander around from town to town. \u00a0We found numerous\u00a0abandoned\u00a0homes and farmsteads outside of the various town listed on this site.<\/p>\n

Our first stop was Forbes, ND<\/a>. \u00a0This teeny tiny town is situated right on the border of North and South Dakota in Dickey County. \u00a0The abandoned school<\/a> there looked very interesting. \u00a0A bright sunny afternoon provided for some great light to photograph this wonderful mess of an abandoned school. \u00a0At some point, someone must have played some paint ball in the school or just walked around shooting paint balls everywhere. \u00a0It added a titch of interesting color to an otherwise\u00a0fairly\u00a0drab interior.<\/p>\n
