Barn Charm

I snapped this old barn about a week ago when I was on my bald eagle hunt.   It was far off the road so I zoomed in for the first photo and then zoomed even closer for the second to get a better look.  I liked the play of shadows across the front.  There is one more barn to show from that day.

Thanks for stopping by!
Until next time...

    What an interesting building. I imagine they are quite rare now?

    The play of shadows is very nice. I hope that shadows are all that play there as it doesn't look too sound these days. Whenever I'm tempted to feel bad about falling barns, I remember the one that was recently rebuilt and looks new and strong again, which is why documenting barns is a super idea one way or the other.

    I am glad you are photographing the very old ones. I feel the same way....They may soon disappear from the horizon. I do my part, too, by photographing their existence.

    My first thought when seeing this barn was that it was a faithful friend. It's serviced and sheltered and is still grand. Have a nice day!

    Beautiful! And I too love the shadows across the front of the barn. It's always fun to get photos like that. That's a great one!

    Thanks for stopping in at Cranberry Morning. My barn was slightly overwhelmed by photos of grandchildren, but I wanted to get it in for Barn Charm. :-)

    The shadows do make it interesting. It is a great barn, shadows or none.

    As usual, I love your barn shots. I must get into this one some day soon. I think when spring has really sprung I will go look for some barn pictures to take.
    I really love the older barns; they have such character and the stories they could tell.
    Blessings!

    The barn is beautiful, and the lighting with the shadows really make for great photos. I like the closeup shot--it really shows off the character of the barn.

    You got me! It looks more like a painting than a picture. I definitely love how the color blends with the surrounding. Anyway, this is picture perfect but I still hope that the owner will take the initiative to repair the damages. It will surely be more appealing and useful when fixed.
