Very well done LowRider. Looks almost like little toy houses. I love it!

It's a nice story that goes well along with the photo. The explanation gives the image much more meaning. I see hard angles and geometric shapes. The snow aids in advertising the structure's angled roof and slants. I can't find anything wrong with it except that as a stand alone picture without the description you gave, I find it a little less interesting.

Great story telling part of this image. Composition, coloration natural for the rural area. Old barns are always interesting to see for me. Keep up the great work of old times past.

Comment from kopilow
This old barn certainly has a lot of character. I can see why you are drawn to it. Have you taken this at another time of day or when its overcast?, when it is not so sunny? I think this shot is a bit too contrasty.

Comment from RastaSkata
I really like this picture it sort of has an emptiness to it that can really show. Also the story really gives a sense of feel to the place. Nice work!

Comment from Ms Vegas Eyes
Hey there, gorgeous photograph. The composition is very good, I think a bit more foreground would make it perfect. The story sad and fits the photo and title well. The lighting, focus and colors are excellent.

LowRider this is a wonderful piece with a great story. The perspective is right on target. The composition really embraces the entire feel for the image and story. Excellent color and detail. Great impact it has me looking for the oldman. Terrific.

Thank you ezo!! Funny what you said, Shack said if his Dad showed up in the photo (only took one) he wanted a 19" print, otherwise, a 14". I just took one shot because I just didn't want to 'disturb'--

Comment from strikerx98
Well, if the barn shot wasn't good enough.. the story put it over the edge! Nicely framed and in focus. I like the snow on the roof. Hope you got more shots of it.

Thank you striker!! I only took this one that day, just didn't want to take up anymore of Shack's time. Did take a landscape of this last summer.

Comment from kiva
Initial impression is the obvious. A noble barn and silo. The story telling raises the bar of course. feedback would be to use archive paper and ink and make your words available with signature and attach to the back of saleable items. just a thought. The barn and silo are a good shot.
