My Old Building Thing

I really enjoy photographing old buildings. Maybe because I was born and raised in a colonial American city and immersed myself in its rich history. I also like the sense of permanence and heritage that historic structures represent. And, of course, the human stories. I imagine the people who lived and worked at these places and feel their presence in the brick and stone. This may explain why Jill and I chose to live in a converted 200-plus year old grain mill, in a small, picturesque Ontario town.
