    Harwinton Barn scene

    Just as a side note I’ve been shooting barns a long time in CT and Harwinton has got to have the most barns of any town I can remember. This particular scene is part of a several acre lot home to horse stables and riding area’s. However, this was the only barn I had a decent shot on without entering the property. I had the pleasure of working with my beautiful wife Cheryl today. Photographed with a Sony A7RII 42.4 MP full frame and a Sony 24-105 F4 lens @ 57mm. 1/400th, f11, ISO 640, Aperture Priority

    It’s a one horse show…………..

    Another day of barn hunting with my beautiful wife Cheryl. This barn was on a fairly well traveled route through Harwinton CT. However, having said that bear in mind Harwinton only has population of about 5000 people so it’s still a nice country road. I only had this one angle on the barn and I couldn’t wait for the horse to be in a better position because I was being eyeballed by an individual who I don’t think wanted me there. So it was one and done and out in a minute for this photographer. Fortunately I was able to walk away with an acceptable image. Photographed with a Sony…

    Barn & horse in Bethany/Woodbridge CT area………

    My apologies but I’m not sure if this was taken in Bethany or Woodbridge CT. I remember not being able to locate the town line sign but it was certainly close to the town line. This was a beautiful corner lot of multiple acres which situated upon it were a barn, house, coral and field located on a main route going through town. The image was shot as seen except for one slight modification to the grounds in photoshop. Photographed with a Sony A7RII 42.4 MP full frame mirrorless camera and a Sony 24-105 F4 lens @ 41 mm. 1/40th, f16, ISO 400, APERTURE PRIORITY

    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…

    Barn at Dry Bridge Rd., Simsbury CT

    While barn hunting in Simsbury CT, on a lovely Saturday afternoon, with Cheryl we came upon this old barn nestled in the foothills. Unfortunately most of the silo and barn itself are hidden by a tree, but you take what you can get. Photographed with a Nikon D7100, 24MP DSLR and an 18-55mm lens @ 55mm (35mm equiv. = 82mm). 1/125th, f16, ISO 400

    Beautiful barn setting in Bethlehem CT

    Cheryl and I caught an absolutely beautiful and warm October day while we set out to track down our list of barns in Bethlehem CT. Knowing that winter was right around the corner we wanted to capture as many barns as we could before the snow flew and the cold weather set in. The barn is untouched but honestly the land it sat on didn’t make for the best image. So I took artistic license and photoshpped the barn/silo into another scene. Photographed with a Nikon D7100, 24 MP camera and a Nikon 18-55 lens at 38 mm. (35mm equiv.=57mm) 1/250th, f13, ISO 100 Aperture Priority
