My Portfolio: The Rural Landscape
The Rural Landscape
By Steve Huff
In 2009 and 2010 I photographed a ton of abandoned houses, factories and rural scenes in Illinois and Missouri. Using a Leica M8 or M9, I sometimes drove 200 miles in a day searching for interesting subjects for this series, and the ones you see below are my favorites. I plan on continuing as it is an ongoing project. Enjoy.

I like your shots Steve. I specially like Home sweet home, number 7. Can I ask you something? How do you process to get those borders to stand out like that? I’ve tried to get B&W like those but I can’t. I’ve tried with some filters to overlay the black borders over the color but it does not look good. Can I kown how you do it?
Thanks!
…something else, I love the metallic look of that picture, that is what I want to learn how to do. Is it curves?
Thanks again!
Steve, I’ve never commented here before, but I find the third photo down to be masterful. The symmetry and composition, along with the coloring, just blows me away!
some cracking shots there steve but I think I would have chosen a better way of displaying them, maybe side to side viewer so that each is displayed on its own
Thanks Tyler. I am kind of limited with this blog layout but may search for a plug in that can display them side by side as I agree with you 100%. Thanks!
can I have one of your landscape images printed so I can hang it on my wall?
I can honestly say that these are all great shots! I really appreciate not only your reviews, but your eye.
I find your photos inspiring. Thank you very much.
Great shots, I envy you. Hope I can do that too. Gonna buy my first camera to start.
Oh my god. Mate, I just died looking at some of these. Just first few blew me away, the square building with stairss, and the shot with the flock of birds mid flight.
Crazy “nutty” stuff!
