PALOUSE COUNTRY
Palouse not only offers great photographic landscape opportunities with its rolling hills, but it is adorned with barns and other farm buildings dotting the fields—many structures are abandoned and on the verge of decay. The time had come for me to make that a destination when I learned that the old barns were rapidly disappearing. I wanted to witness and photograph this place before it was transformed.
Unlike so much of agricultural America, this 4,000 square-mile Palouse rolls, undulates, and presents a textured patch-work quilt of greens, browns, and yellows. The little town of Colfax absorbs most of the overnight guests.
