Weathered Barn

I found this old barn in the Palouse and thought it was interesting. There was some diffused sunlight just hitting it. I like the B&W version the best. Any comment or critiques are appreciated.

Cool! The presentation looks great. My only (minor) nit is id like a bit more space around the sides. Good work.

I think this is well executed and very interesting, Eric
The dark windows in front do puzzle me however, with all of the holes in the roof and side of the building my thought would be that there should be, at least, a hint of detail in the front rooms. Can you elaborate.

I agree with Stan about showing more space on the sides. But with that said I think this is a cool shot. It has great detail and contast in the way that it shows the wooden boards and the knots in the boards themselves. I would like to see more of the wooden fence on the right side....Oh, and great choice with the black and white.

Nice b&w, and I love the texture of the weathered wood. Old barns like this have so much character. Actually, I like the blackened windows. Gives it a mysterious feel.
