Just north of Los Angeles County in Ventura County is an old abandoned Dairy Farm with a metal barn/shed that is in decay. The roof of the farm looks to have been burned down a while ago and the place is filled with graffiti. Couple of buddies and I went to check out the place.

1. I guess this is where they milked the cows???

2. Some nice graffiti.

Nice shots.


He's a politician. It's like being a hooker. You can't be one unless you can pretend to like people while you're screwing them.

Good find. 3 and 5 are the ones I like best. It looks like a place to be careful in.

Thanks folks.
I used a Canon 1Ds MII with a Sigma 20mm f1.8 and a 430EX II to fill in the light on some shots.

The place is actually visited by hikers and such. Didn't feel like a dangerous place. The high winds were making the roof metal plates move on the barn a bit and that was a touch scary.

great location and a nice range of shots too....in #3 I would have made the focus point the pipes in the foreground, for me that is the major point of interest, as it is they blend with the background too much. It also seems like a good place to visit in low light or full moon.....with friends of course.

Good points, never been there at night but I suspect it'll be a bit more scary.
