This battered mailbox leans drunkenly against a gnarled dead tree just south of San Marcos. Behind it is an abandoned house with a wooden sign above the entrance that reads “Ashley’s Attic”. I don’t know who Ashley was but her attic now stands empty and forgotten while the lonely mailbox waits for a letter that will never come.
…but the mail wouldn’t come.

great photo
Fantastic image. Really haunting and beautiful.
so bleak and beautiful
wonderfully moody,great lines and composition
I love that photo.
Very creepy – I wouldn’t want to deliver mail there!
nice mood! desolation galore!!
Amazing shots, all of them. This is my favourite though. It’s timeless.
Did you use a vignette filter? The edges seem slightly darker and out of focus. If so, when taking the photo, or in Photoshop?
very ominous and sad looking photo, wish it were a bit brighter though.
