First photo colourized by ChatGPT. This is a house I passed in upstate NY, probably somewhere near Hwy 37 in Morristown, NY, in 1992 - there was a mass of Tiger Lilies that had taken over the front yard. They sometimes remain even after the house has fallen down, and they are the only reminders that a farmhouse had been there. The house was for sale and a woman stopped and wanted to see inside, so we both went in - the interior was empty but the top floor had boxes full of books, some in German, from the late 19th century, including a travel guide to the USA, so the former resident were likely immigrants.


I don't know why this one is colour - it might have be an infrared film slide or something.
