Sunday Stills

One of my favorite things is old barns and that was the challenge for today. Had to wait until Saturday so I could use the new camera, so I only got the two barns that are closest to where I live.
Two horses call this one home, it used to be a blacksmith shop/machine shop.


This one is a cattle barn in the spring.

Nice job. I knew you were going to have that first one in there. Everytime I go by there I mean to stop and get a pic but never do.

We have a repurposed barn in the yard (it's getting torn down in the spring), it use to be an old house. I'm like you I love old barns. Great pic's.

I like the machine shop, its neat looking. And best of all both your old barns are still getting used.

Eva said...

The first one looks really good, and very different from what I'm used too.
Congratulations on getting a new camera.

I love old barns too. I wish I could save them all.

your barns have history - i love that! I like the colors you pull out with your shots...

what happens when the next generation goes and takes pictures of pole sheds..? although the red pole sheds from the 80's are now pink in certain areas LOL

Love that last view..good thing I don't live up there I would be looking out the windows or sitting outside all the time. What kind of new camera did you get? Looks like it takes great photos! :)

Love the stonework on the first barn. Is that a creek in front of the last barn? Lovely shots. :)

I just love that first barn...it's setting in a beautiful spot! I'd be proud to call that home if I were a horse.
