Artist's Description
"The Old Buchta Place" - abandoned homestead on ND prairie with Simmental cattle grazing
As near as I can tell (from a 1929 plat map), this was the farmhouse residence of Frank Buchta, nestled in the buttes south of Leeds in Benson County, North Dakota. A 1910 plat map suggests it was originally homesteaded by an A.E. Buttz, but no home was there at that time. I've been meaning to get a shot of this place for a while, as I've been by it many times, but it has been hidden in shadows. Lighting on this particular morning was still a bit difficult (I need to get up still a little bit earlier when the light is coming in at a very low angle), but I got a pleasing image, I think, thanks to Travis Stuberg’s beautiful cattle grazing in foreground.
Image captured 10/4/22 at 105mm focal length.
