North Granby, Connecticut, USA. Built in 1792, this barn is located on Lost Acres Orchard that has been in operation since 1812. Some of the apple trees are over 170 years old and still producing tasty fruit. Enjoy!

Certainly an eye catcher with that big red barn. It is apple time again isn't it? I like your perspective on this shot, Thad.

It is amazing to me to know that this barn has been around allmost as long as America. Very well composed and captured.

A lovely rustic scene Thad and a real slice of history.
The scent of apples pervades :)

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

One of my favorite subjects for photos. I really like barns and their very individual personalities. This one has GREAT personality and the colors are quite energetic and the detail and textures most interesting. A great capure my Friend.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
