It was a dreary Christmas Day when I obtained this image at a farm in Long Valley. You can’t see it, but I always remember this farm because it had a wreath at the top of the silo.
Photographically it was a challenge in the darkroom. The white roof tops had to stand out against the fog rising upward from the valley floor, and there were the trees whose branches were hard to distinguish.
Long Valley has saved this farm among others through the New Jersey Farmland Preservation Program which guarantees that this farm, even if sold, would remain zoned as a farm.
I lived about half a mile east of this, in Chester, , and it was always a treat to pull out of my street, take a right, and see this.
