Real Barn meets miniature truck
I photographed this large, well maintained old barn in Haddam CT. For fun I then photographed a 1950’s 3″ long diecast model toy truck in my studio. Using photoshop I then put the truck in the driveway of the barn just for fun. Barn photographed with a Sony A7RV, 61mp, mirrorless camera and a Sony 24-70 f2.8 GMII lens @ 45mm. 1/125th, f11, ISO 200, Aperture Priority

Beautiful barn with (3) silos, Haddam CT
This folks is the reason I chase barns and capture their imges to retain throughout history, even long after some of them are gone. They are simply beautiful. Here’s what sets this barn apart for me. It sloping roof. It’s cluster of three silos. Two are fairly common but three not so much and of varying heights and widths. I know I probably need therapy but silo’s do it for me. I think my barn pictures always have more character and story telling potential when a silo is involved. Lastly that old gnarly tree winding up the front left of the barn. Sweeeeeeet! In my research I couldn’t ascertain who…

Barn Beauties on the CT coastline (5 STARS)
These two barns sit almost directly across from one another along a well travelled CT coastal country road. If you’re one to pay any attention to old barns what will immediately strike you is their absolute pristine, new like, appearance. The roofs are brand new, the cladding does not show one board that is so much as slightly warped. None of the boards even have signs of aging at ground level where you tend to see it most. New looking storm windows are in place and on the larger barn there were even some small windows that were added which are not typical of barns. The sliding front doors on…

Cheryl and I were barn hunting in Monroe CT, this afternoon in December, and I was able to take this image. The foreground was modified slightly in photoshop to add some artistic appeal.

A perfect barn in Southbury.
I’ve been after this barn for months but there were always cars parked in front of it and people working in or around it which precluded me from taking the shot. Although, this day, there was one person working in the barn I knew it wouldn’t get much better than this so I took my shots. With no real place to park my car I just idled across the street for a brief second to take the wide angle shot. I left, changed lenses, then returned idling once again for another second or two and took my closer shots. I must say this is one of the most pristine nicely…

Old barn in Avon.
Cheryl and I were driving through Avon just enjoying the fall day. Virtually every barn we passed I had photographed before years ago, including this one. However, we liked this particular camera angle and the fall weather so I decided to photograph it once again. Photographed with a Sony A7RV, 61mp mirrorless camera in APS-C crop mode. I used a Sony 24-70 F2.8 GMII lens @ 94mm. 1/50th, f16, ISO 100, Aperture Priority
