Maybe it's twisted, but I really like shots like this one. They're sad in their way, but also poignant. This would have been a marvelous entry in this week's Thursday Challenge!
The breaks in the window actually add to the interest of the photograph. Also being in monochrome it has an artistic rather than damaged feel. I may be wrong but I suspect a color shot could made it less attractive.
The barn's condition is perfect for monochrome shots! The wonderful textures of the wood and the broken glass, and the way you've caught glimpses through the barn - beautiful!
Thanks for visiting my little corner of the world. I hope you enjoyed your stay here. Please leave a comment before you leave so I can visit your blog.
A lot of texture in your picture. Enhanced by the B&W.
ReplyDeleteThis barn has become the playground for some kids, no ? Its ultimate use ?
This barn may not be in prime condition, but it certainly has a lot of character. This is a great monochrome picture.
ReplyDeleteA nice graphic image and composition also.

ReplyDeleteIt makes for a great photo though..
ReplyDeleteYou have found a fine subject for photo at least. Very nice composition and fine structure in the wood.
ReplyDeleteI love it, what stories that old barn could tell...:-0
ReplyDeleteIt's eerie and ties in with mine about abandoned building. Mojo is right, beauty in the sadness.

ReplyDeleteWhat a great photo.Little bit of work required I think!
ReplyDeleteA great monochrome shot! The old building, textures and broken windows are made for monochrome - good choice! And great composition!
ReplyDeleteAnswering your question about the tulips; No, I don't have them in my garden - I don't have a garden! I bought them in a flowershop!
Sad picture but lots of texture and detail. Nice.
ReplyDeletei love this old barn, so much character here

ReplyDeleteDarla
Beautiful shots
ReplyDeleteI think you should open some sort of bed and breakfast and take people on photo taking tours.
ReplyDeleteLove the barn!
Very fine black and white...you certainly captured the despair of an old barn gradually returning to dust.
ReplyDeleteDarla,
ReplyDeleteI suspect the strips are there to keep the windows from breaking. Ha!
Now that's a wonderful monochrome shot - very creative and perfect in b/w.
ReplyDeleteNo I am sure not but this is one very interesting broken one

ReplyDeleteLove the strong lines in this, and the textures -- works really well in sepia. How sad to see such a beauty in it's waning days...
ReplyDeleteMight not be in prime condition but it's poetic.
ReplyDeleteLooks sort of sad....I bet it was a beauty in its early years.
