Simple and elegant.

Nice image. I think snow in the front is restricting to make better comporition, but given circumstances, I would say, great composition.

great exposure and very sharp, with loads of atmosphere!
01/14/2009 12:30:04 PM
this is a great, peaceful winter scene. The old barn is great!

I love the tones. The near ground brush makes a nice texture along the ground line.

Wonderful! I loves those barns. Simple, nice and beautiful. I think you cropped it well.

Has an appealing dreamy quality.

I can just feel that cold. Great start!

I love scenes like this. Peaceful and yet a bit forelorn when the weather's like this. I like how you kept that little batch of trees in the lower right side - somehow that emphasizes the distances in rural settings.

Well do. Balanced and beautiful.

I would have to agree with sulamk! I'd love to see a four seasons image of this scene! I look forward to the rest of the year with you!

PAW (for my 2009 goal counting purposes) - I think the crop is fine, showing openness on the right and clustered buildings on the left, but the snow at the bottom is pretty indistinguishable, almost making it look like it's cropped to the barn. I think higher contrast would help bring out the rustic look of the barn, and may also bring out detail in the snow.

I just love the bits of snow slipping through the slats of the roof. Really shows its age.

What a great idea! This seems like the perfect scene for all seasons! I love that you've left just a tiny hint of the red in the barn. Great job!

Quiet. Ageless. That's rural.

That's rural too - can't wait for pictures of Spring...

This is just lovely. Stark and cold and perfect for the first week of the year.

great subject and you captured it really well. I am sure we'll see more of this.

Great photo, I really enjoyed the simplicity of this photo. You captured the true essense of an old barn in the winter, black and white - Perfect!

Very nice. I like the crop. Two features I also like are the snow in the ribs of the tin roof, accentuating those lines, and the muted gradations of the clouds and sky. If you enhanced that during pp, you did a wonderful job.

But it's a nice barn and it looks good in b/w. Great shot!

A perfect subject to start out rural with. I love old barn shots. Your pp and composition looks good.

Yes. It has to. And barns never grow old or uninteresting so I hope we will see many more as the seasons change and the scenery enhances them in different ways. I love this one! It looks like a greeting card. The contrast of soft muted color with sharp aging wood and the pure white snow: BEAUTIFUL!

I like the shot it looks cold I want some snow I like the bright sky behind the barn and darker on the outer edges.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/01/2009 09:28:58 PM
I really like the crop you used here, short and rectangular matching the barn. Very nice!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/01/2009 08:55:27 PM
I was also thinking it would be nice to see more of the open space, very nice shot however.

Looks cold! The muted colors certainly fit well.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

A really beautiful scene. The processing is perfect. I'm not sure about the crop. Maybe a little tight? I'm feeling like I want more of a feeling of space. It's still good, though.
