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…

Unusual but beautiful barn in Plymouth CT

Barn on North Harwinton Rd., Plymouth CT
Old red barn and silo makes for a beautiful scene as the sun sets behind it on North Harwinton Rd. in Plymouth CT.

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,…

Nature has aged this barn beautifully in Middletown CT
Nature has taken it’s toll on this wonderful old small barn on or in the area of Bell St. in Middletown CT. New England’s tough winters have nearly collapsed the roof but, like us New Englanders, it will stand proud until it can’t stand any more. Once, most likely, the home for farm tools, it stands as a reminder of what once was. Photographed with a Nikon D7100 and Nikon 18-55 @ 22mm 1/500th, f10, ISO 200, Aperture Priority
