Saw this one while out today and thought it worthy of a shot.

    Ric,
    Nice composition. The photo is sharp, the colours are great.
    I can see it's very nicely done.

    Great shot all the way around!! However, I bet it would look outstanding in B&W.

    OK, there's always somebody:uhoh..... It's a little distracting to me having the tree cut off on the right side. For some reason the left side (to me) is ok, but the right side bothers me. BUT, it's still a nice shot.

    Hey Antonio!

    B&W is not my thing......all I do is desaturate and boost the contrast.....sometimes change the midpoint.

    Thanks. :D

    Like the color pic better....
    Just my opinion. The B&W is cool but doesn't give the feel of the place (for me anyway). Nice color, contrast and layout. Me likes it :):

    I wish I could have used a higher angle.....just not possible.

    I like this shot, the light is pretty harsh but the angle from which you shot really gives the exposure something extra, there's a feeling of not knowing if something's going on in the barn, there's an air of mystery.

    Thanks, Curtis. :D

    I have shot this same barn from a much different angle...and in an opposite time of year.

    This is from 1 1/2 years ago. I like to feel like I've learned something in that time. :D
