Michael suggested that he would like to see a collage of the barn shots. It would take a while to find all of my images, so I settled on three. (My archive from years past consists of shoe boxes full of CD's and DVD's. Since fall of 2007, I have archived on hard drives and now use Lightroom to catalog them.)
The 2005 shot was retrieved from my website, so it was edited in 2005. I can see some serious flaws in my editing, so hopefully I've improved in the last five years. The images from 2005 and 2008 were shot in September of those years when everything was more golden...the 2010 was shot when everything was still green. My favorite of the six years was the 2008 shot. They had planted corn that year and the sky was beautiful that day. The downside of that one is that the barn is partially covered by the crops.
