Abandoned Farmstead
Kerry Enns Photography presents a striking set of revised Abandoned Farmstead fine-art photographs. Abandoned Farmstead features the rich tones and textures of black and white photography. Enjoy this photographic tour of farm buildings and equipment from the past.
I’ve been updating a few of my Galleries. The first on the list was the Abandoned Farmstead - one of my favourite sets of photographs. I’m always looking for ways to learn and improve. As my processing skills progress, I’m able to produce higher quality photographs. Please visit my Abandoned Farmstead Gallery - kerryennsphotography.com/abandoned-farmstead.

I never get tired of this collection. The combination of light, texture, and shallow depth-of-field resulted in an abstract, kind of dreamy look.
Hope you love black and white photography as much as I do. I took the photographs in this collection in the “wild space” of our family farm about 35 years ago. I never get tired of this collection. The combination of light, texture, and shallow depth-of-field resulted in an abstract, kind of dreamy look. I even like the prominent grain of the Ilford FP4 I was using that day - all part of the black and white experience.
Stubble Fires
It felt strange to bring my expensive camera into a burning field, but I was eager to capture this part of the farming cycle on film.
Stubble Fires represents a vivid memory from my adolescence on the farm. The practice of burning straw after harvest has largely grown out of favour for obvious environmental reasons. In the 70s and 80s when I was young, however, it was a regular part of the farming cycle. Each windrow of straw was set on fire and, ideally, the fires would follow the windrows around the field. It felt strange to bring my expensive camera into a burning field, but I was eager to capture this part of the farming cycle on film.
