This old, decrepit, barn finally bit the dust even though it is pictured in snow. It was in my gallery, before several were deleted a few years ago. I first found this barn hiding in a stand of trees just off the highway over four years ago. I was on my way to the dentist and didn't have time to stop and take photos. My wife and I made a special trip after a new snow to get some shots. Much better then the shots I got at the dentist I might add. I always look in the clump of trees when I travel that road, but the barn has disappeared.
I believe this barn reminds us that, even though we have lost someone or something, the memory continues whether it be a photo, a place or a time. This is dedicated to all those who have recently lost a loved one.

Music is what feelings sound like.
Sweet shot Tick with just the right amount of HDR and the sentiment was perfect.

"What a desolate place would be a world without a flower!
It would be a face without a smile, a feast without a welcome." A.J. Balfour
That's a beauty of a shot, Tick. One of my barns has bit the dust too. It's almost like losing a friend.

ALL IMAGES ARE VIEWED FULL SIZE
Looked like a fine old wreck someone homeless would have been pleased to call home Tic, a fine photograph edited superbly.
A definite thumbs up from me. (o:

Old barns never die if they are on caedes Tick. I loved your barn stories that you used to write. This barn's story is at an end.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.
It is a strange feeling, though, when someone who has been such an enormous part of the "scenery" (my husband, who passed a year ago) is no longer there. But, in your image, even though the barn doesn't stand there any more, you have brought it to memory by your wonderful narrative and the superb editing of this photo.

A very thoughtful narrative Tick and a wonderful accompanying image. A lesson for us as well: don't make captures when you have an appointment with the dentist or don't go to the dentist when you're on a photo shoot, lol.
Thanks for this one Owd Fella!

I love the story, Tick. The barn looks interesting and impressive. I love barns, when I see them, it means I am out of town and I enjoy. Thanks.

Sad to think it is gone, but Your beautiful photograph lives on Tick. A great shot - love that weathered wood and that chunky roof line. A nice tribute Tick and I hope someone was able to recycle some of the barn wood from this beauty.

Life is a Constant Audition
Your right tick the Aborigines call it the dream. world it like we can still recall memory's sights and sounds from are past and standing looking at this area you will be able to see the barn even though it as gone.Great looking photography of this old barn with stunning detail and beautiful colours.Plus the trees and snow and not to forget the blue sky make this photo real pop.Plus the sunlight on the barn is amazing too.i just love all the different colours in the wood as well.

its a hard pill to swallow and even harder shot to take TicK, thats for sure! a thoughtful post and narrative i might add. last years heavy snows took alot a barns down around here as well, sad to see them go when "those" just cant be replaced with new. this is why we take pictures, memories is the only thing we get to keep or own.

It's great that we can hold memories in our hearts this way. A beautiful capture.

Tick - Superb work! Framing the barn with the trees, and having the contrast of snow below and sky above gives the barn is aged beauty. Thad

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine The Earth without art is just 'eh'.
Great post work on the image and a thoughtful narrative, TicK. I imagine there are a great n=many memories tied up with this old barn. I would love to have collected the boards off it.
