Beauty comes from within…………
Beauty comes from within….within the barn that has two trees growing inside, that is. Yup, this old weathered, half falling down barn has been in a dilapidated state for so long that two tree’s growing from within it have gotten to be over 20′ tall. Here the lies the true beauty of why this barn stands out amongst the Deep River CT countryside. You won’t see that every day, even among abandoned barns. Sony Nex 7 with a Sony E 55-210, 4.5 – 6.3 zoom lens @ 110 mm (35 mm equiv. = 165) 1/200th, f8 ,ISO 100, aperture priority

Resting barn under the summers shade in Berlin CT
This well built old barn sits snuggled between two trees enjoying the shade on a hot summers day. Located on Chamberlain Hwy. in Berlin CT. You don’t see a lot of brick foundations for these old barns like this one has. Even more unusual is the custom window at the peak of the side wall.

Heritage Farm, Bolton CT
Beautiful Heritage Farm Barn with it’s majestic silo sits hi atop the hillside in scenic Bolton CT. I was quite a considerable distance away for this shot as they owned a lot of acreage around the barn and I’m limited to shooting from the roadside. I called on my Nikon 80-400 mm lens to get the reach I needed. Remember one of the advantages of a cropped sensor, (compared to full frame sensor’s), is that you get the advantage of a multiplier. This Nikon camera extends every lens by a multiplier of 1.5. So basically instead of 400 mm I had a reach of 600 mm. This allowed me to…

Spring Point Ledge Lighthouse, Maine
Spring Point Ledge Lighthouse 2 Fort Rd, South Portland, ME 04106 Cheryl and I decided to spent a few days up in the Portland ME area this past September to photograph some lighthouses and take in the sights.
