Description
Mystic, Connecticut is a town with a lot of history. People come from all over to visit the seaport, to see the Mystic Drawbridge, and to peruse the quaint shops of the old Mystic Village. Many don't realize that the historic downtown area isn't the only piece of Mystic that had an old time charm. Take the Perkins farm, for example. This 138-year-old farmhouse was once the central hub of activity, but it now sits cold and abandoned -- a silent monument to an older way of life in New England.
For those who are wondering, this image was taken on a tripod using a very long exposure and an ultra-wide 8mm convex lens. Other than the stars, there were only two sources of light...a street light some distance away, and my trusty Surefire G2X, with which I painted the tree.
