    For the essence of a work of art is, after all, that it cuts out a piece of the endlessly continuous sequences of perceived experience, detaching it from all connections with one side or the other, giving it a self-sufficient form as though defined and held together by an inner core.

    Great barn! Can you get it again with the sun on the side you shot to reveal more detail under the eaves?

    I love the colors...

    I must say that this is a very nice and simple shot. Almost like a giant birdbox. The colours all round are great and the shadows under the eaves are a definite plus for me giving it a nice contrasting border if you like. Pity about the pile of rubble to the right rear.
    Not too sure if it needs added interest but it really needs to have the tilt removed.

    Well captured . I like the beautiful green tone to this photo and the nice blue sky really complements it, It is tilted a bit but not so much as it can be fixed in PS. Again well done.
