Partially Abandoned Barn, Coventry CT

Horse and Barn, Durham CT
[wzslider height=”550″ lightbox=”true”]Photographed in Durham CT. I Was driving around the country looking for barns when I happened upon this horse grazing in this beautiful setting.

Photographed with Nikon D7100, 18.0-55.0 mm f/3.5-5.6, shot at 55mm. 1/80, f/16, ISO 100

Weir Farm, old building, Wilton CT

The layout has been modified slightly in photoshop to accentuate the surroundings. Because it’s the back of the building I can’t remember if it was a barn or a house or what? Either way it’s old and it’s attractive to me.
