Barn Charm

This is a barn I have passed near many times and never really notice till a few days ago...

These are not really processed in any way other than to size down for publishing here and I think I hit the sharpen button. I like the color of this weathered wood and wonder why most barns have an overall bray appearance but some has this richer color.

  3. I didn't really notice barns too much until I started photographing them...Now my eyes are always on the lookout....

    I bet this barn could tell some stories...

  6. I could tell the barn is kind of old because of the roof. But I see good wood hanging. ^_^ Great find.

  8. I'm wondering why so many people let their barns fall into ruin...guess it is poor farmer's who just can't afford the upkeep...I just watched some of "Farm Aid" last night.

  9. Looks like it has had more than one coat of paint -- but the weather won out. Great barn.

  10. Isn't that the truth - I, too, have started seeing things that I never noticed before. That makes the daily commute so much more interesting:)

  12. This one has quite a hodge podge of new and old wood, which would drive me insane if it were on my property!

  16. It's certainly a massive building. One of the best features of the photo is the picnic table!

  17. Nice! Isn't it amazing how we can drive past something numerous times and never see it. Looks like it is well hidden back in the trees.

  20. I like the combination of a general view followed with a close up that shows the decay very well. It's a great rustic looking barn.

  24. I love the patina of the old wood. Maybe it is richer because it is more shaded by the trees. Anyway it is great. MB

  32. The colours are aging well on this barn. I wonder if some types of wood turn grey bit others turn brown over time.
