Hoops
This isn’t the image I wanted of this basketball hoop.
The first time I saw it was when I was leaving this site after my second visit. It caught my eye as I was walking past what I thought was just another overgrown empty lot on the property of this abandoned school. When I saw the hoop sticking up above the weeds, I thought it might be cool to shoot. I made a mental note to shoot it on my next visit.
When I returned a couple of weeks later, I was disappointed to see that the basketball court had been mowed (who’d of thought?). Having seen it in its overgrown glory, it just didn’t have the same appeal to me. I still wanted to shoot it, so I went for a different angle.
Nature always takes it back! Very cool shot Bob.
Love basketball…my favorite spots!
