This is a great composition. sharp focus, good exposure (the snow is white not gray!) great color saturation and rendition. good DOF. good job LR!

Comment from zener63


I like this shot very much. The lines of the building combined with the snow and pine trees make for a wonderful scene. I only wish that darned power or phone line didn't cut right across the roofline! Good job Lowrider.

    Thank you zener! Yep, don't like power line! Best I could do to avoid buckshot!! Thanks for your 'gittin' it' 'bout the power line!!!!!!!!!!
Comment from CarlCheadle


Again a great object to shoot. I would have maybe included a little more of the surroundings to the left (if any). But this is a fabulous photo.!! Well Done.

    Thank you so much Carl!!! Surroundings didn't hold my interest much, but, yep, I think, include them and see what you come up with!!!!!
Comment from angel on a dark path


Wonderful image of a building with such character..... decaying barns have such a story behind them.... i'm sure someone will tell you to get rid of the power line..but hey...that is part of the property..the barn loses nothing knowing the fact that there is electricty on the property... but be careful skirting those posted properties!

Comment from Ms Vegas Eyes


Beautiful barn, I love old barns. The composition is outstanding, love the perspective. The focus seems a bit off. The colors are good, a bit gray maybe just from all the snow.

Comment from Caladh


It's like a painting! (I mean this as a compliment, you know.) A painter could hardly put more atmosphere into it. Just keep putting that thick piece of leather into your pants (against the buckshot), but keep going places!

Comment from gajnath


you really have an eye for such marvellous pictures, how many would have seen in this barn a picture worth taking, and yet, i find it so appealing that i could use this for a painting of mine.,

Comment from lanceivar


Interesting subject, I really like the worn out red planks and what looks like a rock foundation. These old barns really fascinate me.

Comment from Clyde B.


I like these types of pictures, the composition is good, the lighting is there, and the now covered ground adds a nice touch. Seems a little fuzzy to me, could be the upload. Great job !!!!

Comment from beautifulpictures


Hello again. I like this photograph also. I see that most of your photos are of old run down things. I like that type of things also. The only thing wrong with this is that it seems a little out of focus.
