Default Barn basics

Hi guys, I went back to that barn close to home .. the one that's about to come down .. sad ..

Here's the spot Farmer Bill the neighbor ties his horse ..

you wait here

Open this door for a visit

I'm going in for a beer

did you see where I left that kingpin?

bigger kingpin

and sadly, a pair of workboots I'm sure are as done as this beautiful piece of local history.. really bothered me when I took this in..

done with these workboots

Great shot JR. Not sure why, but I really like the 2nd shot with the red paint peeling of the door.

Jack, I love all of these. I love the subject matter, but you've photographed them in such a way that they tell a story, rather than just being a picture. The third is my favorite (though the door is a close second). I like the way the light falls along the beam and appreciate the hand-hewn timbers. It makes me wonder about the hands that formed the timbers and fitted them together so well that they have stood the test of time.
