The Barn



The roof on this eastern Connecticut barn caved in during the October Surprise snow storm of 2011.

    It was a severe storm! I love b&w in this image.

    Always wanted a big barn attached. Glad I never got one, because of this photo.

    It's looking a little shabby still today.

    This is a rustic scene for a subject for photography, but the barn siding looks like it is ready to be reused for furniture, flooring, or some other use.

    I really like these kinds of photos. But I think that barn didn't have long to live even before the storm! :)

    The viewer can't really tell if this was an old building ready to fall or new construction that met disaster. There is a puzzle here for a careful viewer.

    Nice image. I hate to see old buildings like this go down, but they reach a point of no return, like a lot of old farms. And people. Ouch.

    This saddens me deeply. Our barn is very old and is a sponge for repairs. Makes we weep to see the local barns vanish...

    That must have been quite a storm Jack, hopefully there won't be any more like this this year!
