Barn Charm


The sun hadn't come up yet and the lighting wasn't the best for this shot.  
However, at that time of morning, the traffic was very light and I was able to slow down and point and shoot quickly.  I'd love to capture this barn in better light so the quilt block would be better seen.  There just isn't a good place to stop.  The sunrise was gorgeous and I wished I'd had time to take some photos of it, but I had an early appointment at the vet for our kitten.  

To see some fantastic barns around the country,
just stop by Tricia's Barn Charm.   

Thanks for stopping by!
Until next time...

I really like the lighting in this photo, the colors of the sunrise are beautiful. It would be fun to stop and see it in other lighting, too, though - this one is a great find!

Oh I don't think you could have a much better photo at that time of day. It really looks beautiful with the pink yellow glow of sunrise on that frosty field and barn.

Re: Your comment in my blog...

I have read an article on how they have to do-stuff-with-Paula-Deen's-hair, to make her tv ready. Like putting some powder on her scalp, where bald spots show up. -giggles-

Wow, I love this one. The sunrise is beautiful behind the barn. It reminds me on times on my uncle's ranch.
Blessings for the moment of memories.

You do get some gorgeous barn photos! Can't imagine how good they would be if you got out! :). You point and shoot real good!

Pamela Gordon said...

I think the lighting behind the barn is gorgeous. It kind of outlines the barn in a yellow glow. I've been doing some drive bys lately but am getting reckless so have to be more careful. lol
