    Pristine horse barn – Oxford CT

    Cheryl and I were taking back roads in the Oxford/Southbury area and stumbled upon this beautiful barn. It appears to be fairly new construction. A peek in the front door reveals a couple of horse stalls. There were also some horses in the pasture which is not seen in the image. Photographed with a Sony 61mp mirrorless camera and a Sony 24-70 F2.8 GMII lens at 37mm. 1/60th, F11, ISO 64 Aperture Priority, Focus Stacked.

    Old cow barn(?) – Morris CT

    This is a beautifully built and appears still nicely maintained barn in Morris CT. As this image was taken from the road I could not see if this was an active farm or not. The writing over the end door says “Every Farm Needs a Team”. I think this was possibly a horse barn as there were images of horses on the sign over the end door. It looks like a cow barn to me but the sign made me think otherwise. Photographed with a Sony A7RV 61mp mirrorless camera and a Sony 24-70 F2.8 GMII lens at 51mm. 1/160th, f11, ISO 400, Aperture Priority

    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

    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. This grande green building is actually the horse barn.  Some folks have mistaken it for the house but the family home is off to the right just outside of the picture. If you’re wondering what prevents the horse from running off there was an electric fence in the thick brush in the foreground of the image.  I did remove it in photoshop for aesthetic reasons. Photographed with Nikon D7100, 18.0-55.0 mm f/3.5-5.6, shot at 55mm. 1/80, f/16, ISO 100
