Corning will forever be in my heart. My father lives there and I can track my family all the way down to the 1800s being in this area.. love watching videos like this. Thank you! You've done a wonderful job
Yes corning! My home town! Technically I lived just outside, about 2 miles out in an even smaller village called buckingham. It’s not even technically on the map it’s so small. Just a few dozens houses close together
You definitely capture a mood. A little melancholy, but not bleak. Not having been to that part of the country before, it's very interesting. Thanks for putting it together. Hope you and yours have a great season and happy 2021.
Nice stuff, Dave. Really enjoy your eye for B&W. Looking forward to seeing future videos like this one, plus your Pentax 67 and Fomapan experiences. Thanks for recording this history and sharing with us.
How many hats: too many! Thanks Ian. Side note: listened to Episode 10 of The Ordinary Photographer yesterday. Many (most) of my photographs don’t tell a story, but I suppose I like it when they do.
@@theoldcameraguy Thanks Dave. I like photographs when they engage me for more than 2 seconds. Many of your images do that and I enjoy your style of shooting.
Yep most sold out to the oil gas and fracking industry. Most of southern Ohio looks like that. I kinda like it personally would rather live there then near the city.
Over 100 different videos . . . but how many different hats? 😎 You certainly have the "eye." Love how the video pans the scene before the capture. Are you also manning the video camera?
Enjoying your wanderings around these towns. Not fully "ghost towns" by the look of it, still some folks living in this one? Are they towns of dwindling populations and if so what are the demographics and how do they take to photographers? The only true ghost to I have been to is Bodie State Park which by its very nature encourages tourists so any issues around voyeurism arent an issue. Anyhow keep up the good work Andrew
Thanks Andrew - Yes these towns still have residents, but the populations are dwindling as job opportunities dwindle too. I ran into a local who saw me photographing around town and he actually gave me a tip about a neighboring town I might be interested in. One of these days I’d like to check out Bodie too.
So weird that a countryside can be left so entirely. That’s disturbing from an European point of view. You‘ll rarely find such spots here (ok maybe deep down in Bulgaria or somewhere in the Carpat mountains)

Thank You - I love exploring these small Ohio towns.
The stop and rxr sign images were my favs. Setting those old rusty rigs was pretty neat, too.
Thanks - I’m a sucker for anything railroad related.
small towns always have a unique characteristic to them. appreciate you sharing these!
Thanks! There’s no shortage of these small towns in Ohio. I won’t ever run out of new little burgs to visit.
THANKS AGAIN FOR SHARING YOUR LIFE HERE ON TH-cam.
My dad's brother, my uncle, was born in Corning circa 1906. He was the only sibling of 9 that wasn't born in the Homestead, PA or the Gary, IN areas.
Very cool!
Awesome! When all of this is over, I'll have to come down to your neck of the woods and we can explore some of these towns!
Yes! Looking forward to a time when we can do that.
Corning is my hometown it’s crazy how small it seems now but if you look back it used to be a thriving community
Yes, a lot of these little towns were pretty vibrant communities back in the day.
There is so much interesting story in your pictures. A small society now gone in to the history.
Yes, I like to preserve what is left of these small towns before they’re all gone...
@@theoldcameraguy A meaningful task, and thanks for sharing. For me it is so far away and I get to see a part from almost another world.

Corning is very picturesque - It’s been a lot of fun photographing these small towns.
Who would thumbs down these videos? Yet another awesome vid.
Haters gonna hate - Thanks man
Another good one, I enjoyed it, thanks.
Thanks for watching - I appreciate it.

Thanks Jim - appreciate it.
For your next Q&A: How many hats do you have? Is it more than Vivian Maier? Great video. Always brightens my Sunday.

@@Harlequin565 Thanks Ian - I appreciate that.
Nice, looks amazing. Always nice to see different locations from around the world. All the best from Scotland for 2021
Thanks Stuart!
Great series of photos, it looks an amazing location where to spend some hours looking for composition.
Thanks - it is a great place to photograph, for sure.
Cool shots man. I love old abandoned buildings and stuff. That gas station looks pretty cool.
Thanks Rob
Wonderful! This makes me extra excited for the XX I have arriving in the mail soon. :)
Thanks - I really do love XX
Could you do a series like this on Yankeetown, Ohio? Thanks
May have to add that to the list - Thanks for the tip!
Yep most sold out to the oil gas and fracking industry. Most of southern Ohio looks like that. I kinda like it personally would rather live there then near the city.
Yeah, this was pretty much the scene in all the Southeastern Ohio towns I’ve been to recently
I lived in Corning and glouster now I live in a town called New Lexington the only thing glouster is known for now is drug overdoses
I need to get out and shoot New Lex one of these days
Over 100 different videos . . . but how many different hats? 😎 You certainly have the "eye." Love how the video pans the scene before the capture. Are you also manning the video camera?
Definitely less than 100 hats haha. I do all the video unless I’m in the scene - those parts are done by my wife or my son.
WoW stunning, USA 100%! Any plans for a American Christmas session, with some color?
I’ve got plenty of color coming up with a Yodica Atlas video later this month.

Yes, once the hills here are stripped of their riches, many people move on...
