Barns in twilight


The old and the new.  This photo was taken in mid-Missouri just after sunset in late December.

Until next time...

  5. It's great when you tell us what time of day and what month it was. I appreciate that. The old barn has much more charm than the new. Glad that it's the one you really focused on.

    Happy V'Day! Love your barn.
    I noticed how the boards are all
    uneven and jagged-so neat. That's a real make-do attitude.

  7. Cheryl that one kind of has a face on the front. I always love that. I am loving those rolling hills and wondering where the heck you were :) Not that we don't have some rolling hills. I love it as a background to your old sweet charmer!

  8. No comparison, Cheryl, I adore old barns and often think of the stories they could tell. I guess one reason I enjoy them so much is when I see one, it brings fond memories of my sisters and I playing in our grand parent's. Thanks for sharing.
    Happy Valentine's Day.
    Hugs,
    Sue

  9. There's a contrast. An old barn with a newer one behind it.

  10. Wonder if the old barn has any use today. I would think it must as they still keep it around.

  14. I like the time of day you took that - very nice. And the front of the barn looks like a face!

  15. Nice barn, Cheryl! It was darker last night, but there was a pink glow kind of like that & I just could NOT get it on my camera... I still don't know what I was doing wrong!

    Thanks so much for joining =)

  16. I really like that tin roof and the vertical boards. It looks really different.
    Happy Valentine's Day Cheryl!

  17. A lovely scene! Too bad this barn hasn't had the attention and upkeep of the building beside it, but it does give it such charm!!!

  23. Now this is a barn after my own heart! I love the old ones. This one seems to have a newer roof.

  24. I love it! You have had amazing barn pictures. I really need to get a barn picture for my home. I have always loved old barns and older country homes. I once had a older farm home for while and it was my all time favorite home.
    Thanks, for a few memories today.
