Gloomy...last day of January.

Lonely and somehow sad.

Can't express why, but I like this one.

I guess this qualifies as a landscape.

Ric,


I too have tried to get many old farm buildings like this one. Sometimes there just hard to pick just the right angle. You seem to have done a nice job with this one. :thumb

I think you've composed a beautiful picture. The color pallette is nicely balanced. The bare, reaching branches of the tree are haunting. Nice.

...Angelo. Glad that you agree that there is something to this shot. I have taken so many farm scenes that I almost ignored this one while previewing to decide on the keepers. It drew me in...

There are a number of old barn lovers here at dgrin. USAir and Greaper come to mind and I know there are others as well.
Here is one from last year... Notice the snow blowing off the roof to the right!
