    Old farm & barn, Durham CT

    An old tractor sits quietly in a farm on the Chamberlain Highway in Berlin CT. The barn in the back ground has been unoccupied for years and years. I had always thought, by virtue of the construction, that this barn once occupied chicken coups. If any of you have any history on this barn please write in. Photographed with A Nikon D7100, 24MP camera and an 18-55 lens at 55 mm (35 mm = 82 mm). 1/160th, f11, ISO 1000

Still a beauty! Photographed with Nikon D7100, 24MP camera and Tokina AT-X-11-20mm shot at 20mm. (35mm equiv.= 30mm). 1/60th, f18, ISO 400

    Barn in Bethlehem CT

    Cheryl and I were out “barn hunting” in Bethlehem CT and came upon this beautiful white barn. It appeared that the 2nd floor was full of hay bails. Like my father before me I worked on a dairy farm as a kid.
