Colorado landscapes: San Luis

General store  

I like the rotten charm of the old buildings in the west and the story they may tell about a time that is long gone. It is sad to realize that there are often no resources to preserve more of them and that they might be lost forever soon. I think it is our job as photographers to keep at least the memories alive by shooting these buildings, even if they are in a state of decay. We discovered this old general store in San Luis, the oldest town in Colorado, on our way from the Great Sand Dunes to our next destination, which I will reveal shortly. So please stay tuned…
