Description
I went down a new road the other day and found this amazing barn. To my humor, it was only one mile to the west of a road I have traveled several times. I captured this structure from several different angles, but something drew me to this particular composition. I feel as though this alignment creates the perception of a portrait or face of the old building. I have also been drawn lately to arranging a few of my shots to a more direct, front on approach such as this particular shot. Call it a phase I guess...I drove around for several hours waiting for something to happen with a nearby passing storm, which never really produced much drama. It did, however, offer a good backdrop for a few pictures here and there. It's somewhat sad to see old structures like this only to be reminded of days when craftsmen hand made these buildings and integrated a unique style and personality.

Isn't it funny how you can drive by something all the time and never know it is there and then one day find it by accident! Did that just last week myself! Great shot!

Thanks bud! I was beginning to feel the effects of a creative rut in my photography, so I'm glad this shot has produced some good responses. I'm starting to feel like I need to travel further from home or pick new subject matter...

Trust me man, I'm all too familiar with that rut. Usually when it hits I try to do something drastically different from what I usually do and that usually kick starts me back up; haha.

That sounds like a good idea...I think I may have some new things I might try to do or at least shift gears and work on something else for a while.
