Bonjour Paul ,
je trouve cette photo interessante , pour l'impression d'abandon qui en ressort . La grange semble en mauvais état , et les balles de foin ne paraissent pas très fraîches . Mais ce n'est peut être qu'une illusion .
Amicalement

Hi Paul,
Woderful capture of the decaying barn which is so common of a sight in the U.S. countryside.
Lovely autum colors and a cloudless blue sky make the ideal backdrop for this striking image.
Regards, Tom

Hello my dear Paul

Nice framework and thick color management as usual.
The title is very interesting and I have to laugh.
The dry glass rolls this side are very good accent.
Congratulation on your great shot !
Thanks for sharing and best regards,
Takero

Bonjour Paul,
A voir les images de pays différents que tu présentes, tu es un véritable globe-trotter ;o)
Beau témoignage d'un passé récent dans la campagne américaine. Au Canada, j'avais photographié de semblables vieilles granges ruinées mais encore debout !
Image de qualité, sur fond de couleurs automnales.
Mes amitiés
Pierre

Paul,
A very hummble place showing the rustic charm of rural America. Really good light and contrast, natural and vibrant colors, good composition. I like it.

Hi Paul,

You've captured so many elements of “abandoned” mixed in this photo and great title. It seems like the barn could be about to collapse, the tree in front could be dead, and the forests in the background could also be shedding their leaves for the winter. Yet there are odd and amusing signs of life too - the barn is “still sanding“, it looks like it's still being used, there's the hay rolls, a splash of colour in the background... nice halfway point between death and life!

Cheers,
Jordan

A classic view from a classic American barn. I like the POV with de rolls in the front.

Best regards Paul.

Hello Paul.
A beautiful photography and a great composition with this old building and the rolls of straw in the first term.
Regards.

Hi Paul,
This is really an usual landscape in summer but I always like to see it mainly because of the effect they create. The lighting and colours are great with excellent sharpness and DOF. I like this autumnal mood on this picture.
best regards,
Darek

Hello Paul, you did an excellent composition of a quite common rural scene. The barn looks prety old and abandoned and the surrounding just emphesizes its loneliness. Well done. Kind regards, Michael

dear Paul,
this your shot is like a music of W.A.Mozart...
both cheerfully light and bottomless sad,
maybe the broken house and your capturing show slight difference.
...it is bottomless light and cheerfully sad...
thank you,
Akihisa
