Picture perfect barn in Woodbury CT
On the way back from a photoshoot in Roxbury Cheryl and I, by chance, happened upon this beautiful old barn in Woodbury. It’s been in the family for many years and belonged to the current owners Grandfather. This is not its original site as the entire barn and foundation were moved here at one time. There had been an addition in the rear which had suffered a collapse. This is one of the most beautiful barns I’ve ever had the pleasure of photographing with its unique styling and weathered barn board. Photographed with a Sony A7RV, 61mp mirrorless camera and a Sony 24-70 F2.8 GMII lens @ 52mm. 1/4 second,…

Christian Barn in Harwinton CT
I love everything about this stoic looking barn sitting high on a Harwinton CT hillside. It has quite a presence and the addition of a cross made crudely out of two pieces of unfinished lumber tells it all. Perhaps there is a message as the bright light from above breaks through the clouds and makes it’s presence on the barn. Photographed with a Sony A7RII, 42MP, full framed, mirrorless camera and a Sony 24-105 F4 lens @ 43mm. ISO 200, 1/160th, f11, Aperture Priority

Abandoned Barn, Durham CT
This image, of an abandoned barn on RT. 68 in Durham CT, was taken on December 11th 2010. I haven’t been by it in years so I don’t know if all these years later it is still standing. Photographed with a FUJIFILM FINEPIX 12MB pocket camera. Auto Mode: 1/800, f5.1, ISO 100

Hidden behind the fall foliage a beauty still stands…….
Another gorgeous barn quietly hidden beyond the fall foliage of New England on Burnt Hill Rd. in Hebron CT. This barn actually sits behind a farm house (to the left out of view). However, it was completely blocked by the yard and trees. I was forced to drive down the street a bit and shoot accross a swampy wetlands area with a long lens to reach it. The long lens compresses the image and gives the appearance that it is closer to the road than it actually is Photographed with a Sony Nex 7, 24MP, mirrorless camera and a Sony 55-210 F4.5-6.3 OSS lens at 109mm (in 35mm = 163).…

Nicely postured barn.
This barn is only about 20′ or so from Maple Ave. which is a fairly busy street. I think whoever built it had a wonderful design. It looks large and grand, with it’s tall walls, while at the same time is not overpowering for being a “neighborhood” barn. This is now the 2nd time I’ve seen a flat stone foundation like this in Shelton and that isn’t typical in general. I have to tell you I’m a big fan. The adjoining stone wall ties everything in so beautifully. I think the foliage also helps downplay it’s size. The cupola is gorgeous and different from what I’m used to seeing in…

A deer passes through in Madison
The only other time I photographed this barn was in the winter where the tree next to it was barren. I was rushed and shot it out of the window of my car and I momentarily pulled off to the side of the road. I was not pleased with the results and have been wanting to come back ever since. This was taken on Rt. 79. Folks that travel from Durham or Wallingford down to Madison pass this gorgeous barn all the time. They also know that this is a very busy, hi speed road, and the barn is situated on a curve in the road. This time I decided…
