    This is sad. No life in the picture when there was nothing but life around these old barns just a couple of decades ago. Times have changed a lot and with it when most of the life that lived and worked on farms.

    I started a new blog just for our flowers

    Sepia suits this - it's timeless in its lack of modern technology.

    Wonderful sepia subject!
    I do agree with Abe - not as busy around this one as in times gone by.
    I'm happy seeing it seems really well taken care of.

    I do agree, one sometimes has the feeling time has not advanced a bit. Sepia emphasizes that of course.

    Oh I love the barn image in sepia, very effective at evoking feelings of days gone by.

    Just a superb photo. Reminds me of so many farms in Minnesota and Wisconsin.

    This aged scene could have occurred 100 years ago. A peaceful farm just awaiting the crops to grow and be harvested. A beautiful and timely view!

    Barns are one of my favorite subjects, old wood, they just beg to be sepia or black and white. Great capture.

    It's great, you could have fooled me. I wish I was around more of this. I really appreciate that you feature so many beautiful country scenes.

    I'd have to concur. Sepia suits the subject. (And other alliterative thoughts.) But if we were to go back to the time when this place was hopping, we'd be shooting film!

    Oh the horror!

    Oh, Oh, Oh! I know what that pile next to the barn is!! It's where you grow horseradish! Seriously it is.

    Not to worry, Abe. This IS a working farm. And there are many farms in my area still.

    Old barns are just perfect for sepia scenes, and yours certainly is!

    So sorry I am late making sepia rounds this week!

    You know how much I love seeing rural scenes and especially the barns. This looks wonderful in sepia! I didn't get the feeling of abandonment from seeing it - more like a pause in the day's activities.
