From a snowy day in January 2011

We had snow, but not much.  Maybe we got an inch or so.  It melted right off the streets and sidewalks.   Got just enough to make it sloppy.
I wish I could find this farm again.  I think we have ran across it a time or two since then, but it is always after we have rambled all over creation.

And for something a little different, I altered the following photo.

It was so snowy/foggy looking in its natural state that nothing seemed to work good while still leaving the feel of the photo.  I liked this best of all.

i like the first one as it's almost grayscale, but i like that last sepia/cinema look, too. :)

I like the last one even better. The sepia tone makes it look like long ago

You've done a wonderful job of capturing rural America on a wintry day. I like your edited last picture very much.

It was enough snow to give these farm building a very attractive coating. I like the last picture for the processing you did. A fine looking, toned image.

Beautiful old barn!

Wonderful shots. They all are good. I hope you find it again. I try to remember where I see things but not always successful--dang it!

Love your barns in the snow! I'm anxiously awaiting some snow in my area to try and capture a barn photo.

I love your last photo - you made it look old-timey!

Lovely! Can we have some of your snow? We had three minutes of flurries about a month ago. That's it! I'm in the South.

Very nice. Snowy and foggy can really make a lovely photo!

These are beautiful images of the barn! It is especially lovely in the snow, even if it wasn't too much. The edited version is quite cold looking, so I like it!

I don't know if we will get any snow this year. I always like a few inches on a day that I don't have to be somewhere. lol I like the treatment you used on the last one. It does look good.

I love it in it's natural state and I like the last one too.
