Round Barn

DsrtVW

This is a unique barn round and old 1899 restored 1984
Took this around noon
These were taken with my D50 instead of my D300 I have been real impressed with the D50 since I bought the new 17-70 Sigma lens it is more of an improvement than the kit lens it originally came with.

The sun through the window is very cool. Great sense of timing.

Very interesting and thanks for sharing - but why was it built like this - do you know?

Beautiful....I was freaking out about the beauty of the structure and the too centered composition until I saw the last one.....and it....is....awesome!!!

I like the 2nd one with the gigantic lightbulb (sun) inside.

Number 4 is excellent. Great composition. I like the pastoral "Thomas Kinkade" pastel, illuminating feel of it. If the sky was brought up just a tad in vibrancy it would add even more I think.

First one
Thank you all for the comments

The first sunset #2 was taken last after the sun went down a bit more and the colors came out more.
#4 I think I like better the sun is a bit more intense. I will kick it up a notch on the color see how it looks. I ll try not to over process it

It was built by a Japanese man, I was told that the area had a Japanese Samurai religon following. AS shown in the plague which I worked the contrast to make it easier to read. There is an old winery near there which I shot but have not PP yet

Nice shots of a very interesting subject. I like #4 the best before the re-work. It has wonderful comp (to me) and great detail to combine with the drama of the sun through the windows.
