'Lone'

That's wonderful, Donna. Like a painting by Andrew Wyeth. Imagine Christina sprawled in the foreground, the barn out of her reach.
I do admire the colours. (colors?)

Shame it got pulled down, but great you captured it so well before that happened - and its colours; not colors

Thanks Andrew. Glad you caught that 'painted' feeling, as that's what I was going for.
(BTW..still debating on that lens purchase)

Thanks, Andy! Oh and it's colors, not colours!!!!😆

Very nice Donna. I too like the 'painted' effect. I also like the rich strata layers in the bottom third...lovely complementary colours!

It's just like a bright watercolour (spelt properly, please note ) and the "stripes" at the bottom just make it better.

Dreadful US/ UK joke:
A Brit and an American are waiting for a train, which has just come into sight. The American looks at his watch and says, "Right on skedule!" The Brit says, "It's 'schedule'. Where did you learn to speak like that?" To which the American replied, "Well, I guess I must have learned it at shool."

Ducks behind the dustbins and trashcans.

+1

Thanks Karlo and Sean!

David...LOL on the joke...good one!
Oh and, it's still color!!!!

I like this. Love the watercolour sky.

Great shot Donna.
Colourful simplicity that just begs to be looked at.

Best regards
Peter

As everyone else has implied, a wonderful "watercolour"

Don't get her wound up lads: American women attend compulsory assertiveness lessons and they have no use for the word "submissive"... allegedly.

Thanks Charlie, Peter and Malc!

Andrew, LOL! 😉

Nice compo

I'm glad you took my levity in the right spirit, Donna.

As long as y'all remember that...ehum, I am always right, then we'll get along just fine!!! Tee-hee! 😁

Very nicely composed, unusual but effective post processing. I like it a lot!

Beautiful photo and composition, recorded for history shame they pulled it down...Best Wishes ALAN

Thank you Bjørn.
Thank you, Alan.
Yes it is ashame that some of these vintage landmarks of old that dot the landscape with an historical charm are coming to extinction of sorts. Many of these old barns are just that, old and are falling apart terribly due to lack of maintainance. So to avoid total delapadation or high cost of repair, they are removed. Others are being removed to free up the land for other uses. I try to seize the moment and shoot these barns whenever I see one as I never know their future fate.

Who cares! I learnt it as 'colours' in the school but like so many other things unlearned, now it's colors for me. Strangely, neighbourhood doesn't have half the feel as neighborhood!

Caught it just in time Donna, and nicely too!

I missed this one when it was posted in the Gallery, sorry for not commenting, it's a beautiful photograph.

Great use of space and colour.

David
