An old plantation house on Maryland’s Eastern Shore that survives as the main house on a farm serves as a commentary on the inequality and vestiges of slavery and Jim Crow that afflicts the area, and most of America. Photographed during a trip to visit the Harriet Tubman National Historic Site.
On the drive back from Florida in February, we detoured to the Eastern Shore of Maryland to visit the Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Museum. I was taken by the countryside but limited on time. So I experimented with drive-by shooting through the window of a moving car using rapid burst mode with fast shutter speeds. Admittedly these are cheap shots, but could one or two find their way into my open-ended Country Roads series of composite photos?
