Grazing the field in Bethany CT
This is the largest horse barn I’ve come upon. Located on a side street off the main road in Bethany CT it probably offers a lot more than just boarding. I was able to catch this horse grazing near the fence and I was able to get him in the shot up close with his barn off in the sunset. Photographed with Nikon D7100 and Nikon 18-55 @ 24mm (35mm equiv.= 36mm) 1/125th, f16, ISO 400, MANUAL MODE

Barn in the sticks of Winchester CT
I was hunting barns in the northwest corner of Torrington CT when I had just crossed over the town line into Winchester. I stumbled upon this barn on what appeared to be a very narrow, poorly maintained country road. You had a sense that you were really in the country with little around. Photographed with a Nikon D7100 and a Nikon 18-55 lens at 20 mm. 1/250th, f11, ISO 100 Aperture Priority

Rooster Rise Farm, Berlin CT
Looks like this beautiful large aging red barn, situated on the Rooster Rise Farm, has weathered many a storm and is still proudly standing. It has a very grand design and a thing of beauty in the countryside of Berlin, CT. I’m not from Berlin so I don’t know exactly what they farm at the Rooster Rise Farm. I didn’t see any cattle so I’m presuming its vegetables these days. That’s just a guess however. The roof looked to be in good condition, not counting the deteriorating roof of the one level structure in front of it that you can barely see through the tall grass. I hope the owners…

A old beauty on Tranquilty Rd., Middlebury CT
This combination farm house/barn/garage is absolutely a work of art. If I had to guess it was probably built in the late 1800’s with post and beam construction. Although it’s very beautiful from the road it’s true beauty is in the detail. If I was able to go into these structures it would take me back in time. Built with such fine craftsmanship that they stand solid today after all these years. These grounds have an absolutely breathtaking view of Middlbebury’s valley. You can literally see for miles on end. Situated on Tranquility Rd., in this neighborhood, you’ll find some of the most beautiful homes you could ever imagine. Some,…

Richs Farm, Oxford CT
Rich Farm Ice Cream 691 Oxford Road (Rt 67) Oxford, Connecticut 06478 When Cheryl and I pulled the car along the side of Rt 67 to photograph this absolutely gorgeous barn it started raining. I rolled down the drivers side window and was able to squeeze off two shots but it was raining to hard that I had to close the window and call it a day. Fortunately when I got home I was glad to see that I got a decent shot.
