http://shakey.smugmug.com/photos/17140964-L.jpg

A leaf frozen in ice . I took a lot of pictures of ice since they were making some real interesting geometric shapes with the melting that has been going on here. Nothing however had or held much interest. I saw many frozen leaves but none had the color or seperation I was looking for ,untill I found this one.

Probably not a real Amish barn though. By their very nature, the Amish people are a "minimalistic" society and probably would not choose to adorn one of their barns with an object conveying national patriotism. I liked the view just the same.
