Lisa, this is beautiful, very beautiful & the texture is perfect... very aged looking! Kinda looks like infrared in sepia! LoL! =)

Another piece of history, with a "lean-to" on the side of it. You've added an extra special touch with the coloring and texturing. Beautiful, Lisa!

Ana Eugénio said...

great processing. I love the icy light and the vintage tones. well done :)

Kaya said...

Dear Lisa, I love this barn. Recently I found a barn and I took a few pictures of it and all of them went to trash.

I don't have luck with barns. I admirer you photograph so much. It seems that this barn was willing to tell you its stories.

Splendid picture and beautiful colors and shades. It's like an old time photograph. Very gorgeous.

Warm hugs from Kaya.

LOVE the roof! Usually keep mine in color to show off the awesome chipped paint on old barns, but I really do LOVE what you did here.

Judy said...

This is an awesome barn!

Evelyn S. said...

Oh how I would love to see this structure! The sepia and texture treatment are so beautiful.

Beth said...

Kim Stevens said...

That is so gorgeous - I saw a couple this weekend that I wasn't able to get any photos of and it about killed me! lol

We were driving my daughter to her solo and ensemble event, couldn't be late, and on the way home there was always someone behind us....ugh! ; )

Lui said...

I always dreamt of living in a barn with my dogs but my practical side tells me I am not fit to live in one. Sigh.

Your image is simply poetic, Lisa. So inspiring to see! And I'm glad you have no word verification ;-)

This is such a cute little barn! Love this photo and your post-processing!

My Inner Chick said...

--Such character & history.

Only if walls could talk! :)

Hilda R.B said...

Beautiful photo. The colour was great to this photo.
I see it is frost in the foreground and it provided an exciting look.
I always think about those who have lived there and how they felt when I take pictures of old houses.
Great job!
Hug from Hilda

This was lovely Lisa! A charming and beautiful picture.

Very nice black and white photo! There is almost no snow. A little bit strange?

AllanW said...

Beautiful old barn, nice shot.

Brenda said...

Lisa - what gorgeous tones! There is so much texture here to enjoy - the barn, the grasses, the trees. All combining to give a real feel of beautiful desolation.

Pat said...

What a charming old barn, full of character! Your masterful processing enhances the beauty of the weathered wood, the dried grasses and the bare trees in the background.

La Principessa Errante said...

Valentina Mantovani said...

Dorian Susan said...

This is a fantastic image for "charm" in a barn. I love the tones you obtained in your processing. So loney it sits there in the field. Great captured my friend.

JillsyGirl Studio said...

I love all the lines and definitely the processing!

TinaThePhotographer said...

Beautiful photo! I love photographing old barns, as well. This photo looks beautiful with the tones you have used. Bravo!

Marissa @Life On Our Side Of The Mountain said...

How beautiful! This would be gorgeous framed.

Anna said...

Hi Lisa,
You are really going to town with your B&W's and in this case, sepia type, images. Wonderful! Although I do love color, without it, form and texture have the chance to take center stage. There they get to sing and dance and my, what a show!

Sall's Country Life said...

Beautiful photo and love how you enhanced the old barn's looks with texture and sepia. Better than ever!

I love the detail in this barn. I can feel the texture of wood and smell the winters air.

Tatjana Parkacheva said...

This is great photography.

Regards and best wishes

Kathy said...

Producing this in a sepia tone is perfect!

Gardening in a Sandbox said...

Old houses and barns just suit black and white. Wonderful. V

Looks very interesting. I want to see what's inside this house. Enigmatic photograph.

Daniel said...

Lovely photograph. It seems to have been a home at some time and converted to a barn for other purposes. I wonder how old it might be.

geetlee said...

I love the processing! So beautifully done :)

Betty Manousos@ Cut and Dry said...

SD ~ Dawning Inspiration said...

True art in its finest form!

AudreyO said...

When I see a photo like this I always wonder what the story is. That building has a story. That building knows people. Do you ever do that through your lens, wonder about the story?

Ruth said...

ooh! Lovely, that soft tone suits this image so well Lisa.

Barbara said...

I'm in love with that barn! Love the mood your processing sets here.

Kia said...

Oh, Lisa, this is stunning! Such a charming barn! :) And I love the vintage tones. I am quite envious coz in the US you have those fascinating huge barns. I wish we had them here too.
I am having a look at your older post, you have so many terrific images. Glad I have found your site!
Have a happy weekend.

Clairejustine said...

Great shot :)

beth said...

i love old buildings and barns like you can't even imagine.....this is fantastic !

Mona's Picturesque said...

The most beautiful barn pic I've EVER seen! ♥ In love with it ♥

Genie said...

I am like the saying..."Help me, Phonda, I can’t get up.” BUT, instead it is...”Help me, somebody....I am stuck on Lisa’s blog and I cannot leave!” It has been a good day in my suspension room...no bad kids so no one to teach...I am on my computer with my iPhone as my hot spot and I am a happy camper. This barn is so unusual, and your processing of the image is wonderful. It is small and so sweet and vintage looking. Just the perfect size for me to add electricity to, a wood stove, and then move my art and sewing things out there. I would be in heaven. Hugs, genie
