The haiku is a lovely accompaniment to your photo. Your image today is beautiful - the rustic little shed almost lost in the greenery looks like it would make a perfect studio!

Even though this shot is dreamy and soft-focus, you've still managed to get really rich textures in the sky, the trees and the wood of the cladding. Excellent work!

I think it is a good idéa to separeate your sites. Even if you don´t have as much as I have. :) Shall be interesting to se what else you come up with.

I like the colors and structure of today shot, but somehow it makes me dizzy. Strange!

Tina´s PicStory said...

beautiful barn :)

Ellie said...

I love your picture of your barn and your edit looks great.
That is a beautiful haiku to go with your picture.
I think it's a great idea to keep The Creative Exchange separate and look forward to what may be coming next.

Tammy said...

First, I love the dreamy feel of this shot!

Congratulations on outgrowing one blog!! How exciting.

I'm not sure how you feel about linking up posts that are part of another Linky, but I thought the post I'm sharing today was perfect for the creative exchange too.

Lúcia said...

That's a great idea Lisa!
I always learn a lot about photography when I come here or visit the other blogs, I'm sure it will increase your success! ;-)

Anna said...

This is beautiful. I love this kind of shot. I don't know what has happened on blogger, but my blog has disappeared for now. I'm working on trying to get it back and hopefully that will happen soon and I can start posting my images from my trip to New England. Meanwhile I'll just enjoy my blogger friends' posts.

Your Creative Exchange is such an inspiration. Everyone that links here has such beautiful pictures. I get so inspired when I visit all the different links here. Can't wait to see the new sight. Going there now.
Have a wonderful week.
Oh, by the way, that is a great way to start a day!

beautiful barn!

Annika said...

Got the new link bookmarked! I really need to get back into the habit of posting photos, too!

Dorian Susan said...

Hi Friend....sorry no visits lately, trying to make space. Breathe in and out I say.
Congrats on making a new space for the CE. I will do my best to find you.
I loved how you said some mornings set the tone for the whole day? ( I think you were more eloquent but...) I found it strange that I'd done a morning theme this week. And yes, the day did set a tone that was lovely.
How cool that someone sent you a haiku. Your images inspire-it's plain as that.
Rushing off to boring class. Will stop by later and check out the new digs.
virtual hugs from me to you!

Anika said...
