This is a shot taken in August in the county north of where Chicago is located and I live. The old poplar tree is at least 150 years old and I know the barn is restored but probably goes back that far too. I really liked the light in this shot.

Think that this is a place where (country)life is still good Kathy.

I agree with you about the light in this shot. Very nice one!

This a lovely scene very well photographed Kathy. The barn looks great and so does the tree. The sky on the right is a bit washed out but that happens (to me also) when one focuses on the darker side.

Kathy - Old buildings are a fascination for me. I lie this old barn and tree. Shooting from this angle, as you had to, with such strong contrast of light, resulted in the clouds getting blown out. In spite of that, it is a very enjoyable scene.
