This barn sits along side Hwy 84, near La Honda, California.
It's a popular shooting opportuninty as you are driving over to the coast.

This is a crop and an exposure tweak from this shot. Opinions on which is preferred?

    I like the sun and shadows in the foreground of the original - the sky also looks more natural to me. But I like the was you processed the barn in the crop. Very nice!

    I like how you recovered the highlights in the first. I wonder how it would look in B&w?

    I'll experiment with it. In my mind, the "redness" of the barn
    dominates the view. Maybe it would work. Selective color perhaps
    too, though that look has become a cliche'.

    Thanks for the suggestions, all.
