Great entries so far! Welcome Bakes, and great photos!

Those fire tower windows are art in themselves :up::up: If for nothing else, I feel a fire tower hike is calling me for one of these photo opportunities.

He/she was licking the bottom of the door for at least the 15 mins I stood there watching. I'm guessing there was a scent coming underneath the door that it was interested in.

Great set of photos...I especially love the one of the old window pane with the reddish branches growing across it...and the open barn door with sunlight streaming in.

Most of them are an easy hike if you plan it right you could do 2-4 in a day!!

If you so decide and want some company let me know.

I like those photos from George...windows within windows... :)

Here is one from this weekend...the sun was setting at our cottage on Lake Ontario Saturday night...always a spectacular event...
and I happened to notice the abstract play of light and reflection on our windows which face the beach...thought the sunset looked pretty cool from this perspective too.

Almost missed that one from PJOakes...

Where is Fort Crown Point?
That's a cool looking photo too. ...like the green fields & blue sky outside contrasting with the grey stone walls.

Fort Crown Point is in Crown Point NY. It is north of Lake George. It is ruins now but the photo opportunities seem endless there. That was my first visit to the area. Just for this challenge. I will be returning. My image as an attachment did not show up large enough. I will have to resubmit it.
