    Setting sun on a beautifully aged Meriden barn.

    August 13, 2019 / No Comments

    I had my list of barns to find this day and when I came upon this one it did not disappoint.  Not only had it aged beautifully but, typically, any barn scene with majestic silos will usually shine in an image. Just on the other side of the barn, (out of picture), were about a half dozen dairy cows in…

    Olson’s Bridge in Deep River CT

    August 11, 2019 / No Comments

    While “barn hunting” in Deep River CT the Olson’s covered bridge (private property) presented a beautiful site on manicured acres of property.  A nice winding road led up to the bridge allowing access to the other side of a small creek which fed into a pond.  As this was private property I was forced to put a long lens on…

    A barn sits at the end of this long and winding road.

    August 9, 2019 / No Comments

    This was really the only vantage point I had on this barn.  The road you see appeared to be private so I didn’t dare travel too far down it.  There was some type of farm at the end but due to all the tree’s I couldn’t tell what kind of a farm it was.  I had to use a long…

    Pristine barn in Preston CT

    Ray White’s Metallic Eagle, Bethlehem CT

    August 3, 2019 / 2 Comments

    While Cheryl and I were driving through rural Bethlehem CT we happened upon this beautiful metallic welded American Bald Eagle in an open field on the side of the road.  Immediately I pulled the car over and, fortunately, had my camera gear with me. The Eagle is probably about 6′ tall from claws to the top of the wings.  It…
