chris,
it's a wonderful story, good thing you got there in time to take
photos, so that somehow this building will be remembered.
in ann honesty, i'd have taken the dress. call it cheesy, so be it,
but i would have taken it and kept it, wrapped in its plastic bag.
it's sad that it got destroyed with the house. i don't know, call it
a "titanic and the blue heart" moment.
either way, congratulations, and that photo is truly beautiful and
touching.
nico.

Iwert,
I found the dress in the walk-in attic of an abandoned farmhouse on
the edge
of the city of Fort Wayne, Indiana. I had driven past the house many
times
for a year before going to photograph the place. It was close to an
apartment I lived in at the time, but I never stopped to photograph it
because the outside of the house wasn't so interesting.
