This photo of the historic Blum Barn near Manchester, MI was taken exactly one year ago today. Sadly, this beautiful piece of local history was lost to a fire in early January of this year.
I'm grateful to have captured images like this over the years, preserving a small part of its story and character. While the barn may be gone, photographs like these help keep its memory alive and remind us of the important landmarks that have shaped our local landscape.
It's a bittersweet reminder of how quickly things can change, and why documenting the places around us matters.
