Default Winter Prairie Barn

Plum Creek Barn

This is my first post for critique and would love some comments. I noticed a week before I captured the shot that in the morning the sun would cast the windmills shadow on the front of the barn. I came back and waited until it showed up where I wanted it and captured it.
Thanks in advance!

This is the kind of thing that brings out the explorer in me. I see this and want to go into the barn and dig around a bit, not take anything (except a photo or two), but just see what might be in there. Old buildings and things from the past intrigue me. Nice shot by the way.
Personally, I don't think I could make this shot better. The shadow wasn't noticeable at first, until you pointed it out.

Nice shot. The subjects are a little closer to the edge of the frame than I would prefer, though. I would clone out the power lines and maybe the tree on the far right also. I wouldn't have noticed the shadow either.

Thanks for the nice comments! I will clone out the power lines, which I was on the fence about when I processed it. As for the tree to the far right, I am not sure I can do it clean enough for my taste.
