This was really the only vantage point I had on this barn.  The road you see appeared to be private so I didn’t dare travel too far down it.  There was some type of farm at the end but due to all the tree’s I couldn’t tell what kind of a farm it was.  I had to use a long lens to even get this image.

Sony Nex 7 mirrorless camera with Sony 55-210 @ 82mm (35mm equiv. = 123mm)

1/320th, f11, ISO 100, shutter priority

TIP: when photographing with a long lens and you are hand holding set your shutter speed at least the same as the longest end of the lens.  In this case my lens could zoom out to 210 so I had a setting of 1/320th which is longer than the 210.  The reason for this is because it’s difficult to hand hold longer lenses and you need a fast shutter speed to compensate for the camera shake.  Of course on a tripod this doesn’t matter.
