Old Cow Farm in Litchfield CT
Another barn on the list for Cheryl and I in Litchfield CT this bright sunny day. This property covered many acres and was a beautiful site to see. I’m sure at one time this was a bustling farm replete with farm house as seen in the right distant side of the image. However, with it’s boarded windows I believe the farm house is no longer occupied. I didn’t see a lot of activity or any livestock during my visit so I’m not sure to what extent the farm is utilized today. With it’s towering silo’s and acres of fields I’m sure there was a lot of cows to feed back…

Another beautiful barn in Roxbury CT
Another barn on our “to do” list of barns in gorgeous Roxbury CT for Cheryl and I. As you can see it’s a beautiful, tranquil setting that was most likely a bustling cow farm back in the day. The property owner came over to us and was very cordial welcoming us to photograph the barn as we liked. We shared our website address and hope he stops by to see the finished results. If you do please tell us what you think! The entire shot is “as is” however the stone wall was modified in photoshop for artistic reasons. Photographed with a Sony A7RII, 42.4 MP full frame, mirrorless camera…

Another old barn in gorgeous Roxbury CT
Another address on our list for Cheryl and I as we went barn hopping during a gorgeous spring afternoon in Roxbury CT. Home to only around 2300 residents, with little commercial development and a lot of farm land, this journey was a true pleasure. I decided to take in all the beautiful stone work in the lot opposite this barn. I don’t know if that land belonged to the barn owner or not but I felt it enhanced the image. There is a town road that seperates the lot in the foreground from where the barn sits but it’s hidden behind the stone wall. Photographed with a Sony A7RII 42.4…

Well kept barn on the side of the driveway……….
This barn is located just adjacent to the main home that is on the right side of the driveway out of the picture. It’s obvious that the homeowners have done a good job keeping it in tip top shape.

Picture perfect!
First on our list of barns to photograph this Saturday afternoon in April was this absolutely pristine barn in Woodbury CT. We chase barns and we’ve seen a lot of them but few will stack up to the maintenance that this barn has seen over the years. It was so well kept that I almost thought someone was living in it. However, I couldn’t see any drapery in the windows so I’d have to assume that it still functions as a barn. It’s was absolutely beautiful with the addition of a main entrance and an add on room to the rear. Photographed with a Sony A7RII 42.4 MP mirrorless, full…

Barn – Mount Carmen Ave., Hamden CT
Looks like the barn to the right/rear was probably the original and the barn in the foreground was added at a later time. These barns are situated on a nice piece of property on Mount Carmel Ave. in Hamden. This road is probably best known for Sleeping Giant State Park and Quinnipiac University. Hopefully the owner is able to tend to the gaping hole in the roof before too much serious deterioration is done. Other than that the exterior has been preserved fairly well. Photographed with a Sony A7RII 42MP full frame, mirrorless camera and a Sony 24-105 lens at 34mm. 1/250th, f16, ISO 400, Aperture priority.

Old Barn, Todd St., Hamden CT
Nice looking old barn on Todd St., in Hamden CT. What makes this one unique is the addition of a chimney. They must have been venting stove pipe into it. Photographed with a Sony A7RII 42.2 MB, full frame mirrorless camera and a Sony FE 24-105 lens @ 51 mm. 1/200th, f11, ISO 400, Aperture Priority
