The image shows a rural landscape with a farmstead nestled among rolling hills. The main focus is on an old barn-style building, surrounded by various outbuildings and trees. A fenced-in area appears to contain crops or pastureland in the foreground. In the background, more buildings are visible along with vast expanses of open land leading up to distant mountains under a clear sky. The black-and-white photograph captures a sense of tranquility and simplicity from an earlier era, likely intended as documentary photography for historical purposes.

The image depicts a rural landscape with an expansive farm spread across the scene. In the foreground, there's a small building made of wood and metal roofing, indicative of traditional construction methods possibly using old shakes on its roof as suggested in the caption. There is also a new pile of lumber from Ola self-help sawmill co-op nearby which indicates recent or ongoing activities at this farm. Beyond this immediate area, several fields with different crops are visible, including what appears to be wheat and corn rows stretching across the mid-ground towards hills and mountains that form part of the background. These natural features provide a sense of depth and scale, emphasizing the size of the property – 640 acres as mentioned in the caption. On the right side, there's an old wooden barn alongside some smaller structures like sheds or perhaps storage units for farming tools and equipment. The overall scene is one of rural life with both traditional elements still standing strong amidst more modern agricultural practices suggested by the new lumber pile from a self-help sawmill co-op. The image captures this landscape in black-and-white, which lends it an air of nostalgia and emphasizes textures like grasses on fields, tree bark, or wooden structures. The absence of color focuses attention on shapes, lines, contrasts, and details rather than their hues.

The image is a black and white photograph depicting an expansive rural landscape, featuring farmland, grazing land for cattle, and scattered buildings indicative of agricultural activity. The terrain includes rolling hills in the distance with sparse vegetation, typical of a semi-arid region. In the foreground, there's a small structure that appears to be made up of shacks or sheds, possibly part of an old building such as a barn, which is mentioned being supplied by Ola Self-Help Sawmill Co-op using new lumber. The photograph captures the essence of rural life with open fields and animals grazing freely. The main focus lies on the expansive farmland that encompasses 640 acres in Gem County, Idaho. Among these lands, sixty acres are dedicated to tillable land primarily used for livestock raising. A specific mention is made regarding a farmstead established about fifty years ago, highlighting its historical context within agriculture and rural life. The overall composition of this photograph showcases the rustic charm and simplicity associated with traditional farming communities during that era.
