Vintage Potato Storage

This is old Mormon farming country, and it is Idaho, so the main crop has always been potatoes. When I first came here I was struck by these storage units, new and old, scattered around the area.

I have since learned that Mormon’s don’t like tearing old family stuff down, an endearing quality…

This one is off Hwy 33 between Driggs and Tetonia. I snapped the shot today.

The purpose of the three shots, is for evaluation. The original was taken from a distance, and lacks the quality I’m used to with my former camera. The artsy one is just for fun, but the third shot is done using Gimp2‘s cartoon mode, which adds an interesting texture to my point and shoot camera quality…
