This red barn caught my eye from a Ridge I was driving on because the sun was shining on it. The only problem was the sun completely disappeared before I made it there. I knocked and got permission to get a shot and this was the best I could muster! The way the trees and bushes were positioned prevented me from finding a view that included the whole barn with any nice views of the snow.

thank you!
That’s delightful and the best detail is the lighted windows!!
Very good to notice that detail!
apologies, but the scene just inspired a little poetic thinking. Thanks for sharing.
A red wall stands
where the field forgets itself.
Snow swells the shrubs into white fists.
Wire sinks between posts,
nearly gone.
Leaves stay put,
brown paper stitched to ice.
I never really understood the ins and outs of poetry, but you seem to have a talent expressing yourself with words! nicely done!
Thank you. I have completed a couple of 365s in photography and I wanted to take on a new one, but I have suffered a spinal injury a while back and carrying a camera is too much each day, so I swapped a camera for my notes app on the phone. I can’t say I always hit the mark, or that they are too in any main stream sense, but they are me and that feels right. Photography used to let me
Capture a fleeting moment in lines and color, and now it’s poetry.
Keep up the fine work with your camera. I have loved your work over the years.
Hoping you find healing for your back! Some poetry just does not make sense to me but I really thought you had created something that expressed your thoughts quite well. I don’t even want to try my hand at that, it would be an utter disaster.
