Carol, when this image is approved, your gallery contains 1,361 images. Too much to count which of them are barn pictures. I agree with you it's a huge collection anyhow.
This one is a perfect addition. Very characteristic. Your perfect way of editing has giving this post a special touch. Very well done again!

Rustic and wonderful to behold. I like it very much, Carol.

A fine old barn, indeed, Carol - love the angle in which you shot it and the post work as well - Very Nicely Done!!!!!!!!!!!

Your talent allows us to see the beauty of old barns, the details, colors, lighting truly are wonderous to view. Excellent scene.

This looks like a designer had worked on it but probably did not. Great image !

Your editing is superb on this one Carol! tigs=^..^=

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love this Carol:):):) This is one of my favorite barn images of yours:):) Super treatment here. Keep it up!

Y'know, Carol, I add a lot of favorites to that folder in my profile page, but this one truly belongs way up in the top five. So many elements here are so brilliant in their assertion on my screen that it's hard to count them (sorry, my collegiate fine art training is currently bashing me upside the head, as I ponder your work). The color range and their specificity of location provide a wonderful balance to the entire image, with the strong band of bricks at the base creating a strong foundation of visual weight. Some images float too much because nothing pins them down at the base. This one does a perfect job of avoiding that float and the soaring silo does the same for the upper portion of your art piece, balanced side-to-side with the strong and yawning black window and door openings, finished on the right by the staccato shadows thrown by the broken roof eaves on the right. The close crop of the barn vs. the border allows the structure to have the strongest possible dominance, over all the other elements in the image and even over the human viewer... you simply can't not stop and study and take it all in. The thinly detailed lines throughout--from the bare brush and tree to the brick pointing and barn boards--provide the viewer with so much to study. Your barn is definitely not the one-glance-and-move-on variety of submission. And then there's the superb post-shutter treatment you've given it. I have viewed your long list of barns (eagerly, honestly) and appreciated the rustic visual style you provide them--and it has worked in pretty much every case--but I think in this artwork I'm seeing the pinnacle of what that application can do. It really deserves to be printed large--30" tall, minimum--and matted, framed, and hung as the main focal point in the room in one's home where guests are entertained. They would have trouble keeping their eyes on anything else when this image is in the room.
