Description
"Claimed by the Lake"
This very large, majestic (Straabe, Mhyre, et.al.) farmstead is just south of the also nearly-deserted town of Churchs Ferry, both being victims of the rising Devils Lake. Devils Lake is a closed basin, and it rose relentlessly for over a decade before finally starting to recede in recent years. At the high point, people could kayak/canoe THROUGH this house (I saw some pictures online).
Image taken 8/7/19 with Pentax K-1 and Rokinon 135mm lens from the "Straabe Bridge". Sky at time of shooting this was featureless so I layered in some clouds (plus reflection) from my collection.
