Description
This old barn is still standing with a tree on one side and large dense blackberry vines on the other. As a result it still stands, but forgotten.Related content

I had hoped to capture that step back in time feeling that so many people seem to be able to capture here on DA. But I did not succeed very well. Maybe I needed different settings or something. But these old barns that spot the country side of America are sad to me it represents the passing of the time where there were many busy small family farms. Not so many now, the new ones have metal sides barns. I know one man who live in a very old farm house that has been very well kept up and he moved in a old barn because the original had fallen down. They took huge poles and put them in the ground with cables to hold it up while they number every board, they they took it slowly apart and then reassembled it on the other farm! Now it has a new home to stand beside and a new purpose, with barn new paint to last another hundred years I hope.

It is your decision dear Loretta!
Yesterday ı went to Beyşehir lake again and tried to shot some sunset photographs. I was nearly crying because the things that I see and the things that I capture was not the same. Mother nature is always more talented than all of us...
When I looked at your photograph All I see is a serene and peaceful prairie view with an old barn...The yellowish grasses arose in front of it so I can not decide which way to take to go in to see the old cowboys are preparing the tools for the next days hose race...
I suppose the fog is not so dense but anyway, I like it really very much. And I can understand what it means to an American citizen...
Have a nice week...And share your photographs dear friend. Don't let us miss them

I have none right now to share, it has been raining a lot here and I tire of super macro flower shots.

Thank you Dave. I was going for a step back in time feeling here. but it did not turn out near as good as so many foggy shots they capture so well here on DA. Not sure how they do it.

yes it did x3 i remember one of the stories my mom or other relatives made up to keep us from investigating the barn xD
they said a dead cow was up on the second floor of the barn. course i was smart enough to know that cows cant climb ladders. so i wondered how one could even have gotten up there xD
