The lighting is really nice. I like how the light hits the "doorway" in the barn. I like how you've positioned the barn with the BG mtns. This is a very pleasant image to view, Graham.

Beautiful composition. I like how the position of the barn mirrors the shape of the mountain peaks. The golden mottled lighting on the peak is absolutely perfect, and those clouds really add some interest. I'm a sucker for old barns! I must admit, though, I've never seen one in a location as beautiful as this.

Hi Graham, I think you have some great clouds and light and shadow on both the water and the BG hills. Because you used such a sharp DOF, I think the stones in the building are fighting for attention with the BG. It might have helped to use a more shallow DOF and focus on the stones. An idea ...

Graham, this is a powerful yet harmonious scene, bathed in golden light. This barn ruin looks perfectly natural sitting here. I see triangles in this image, in some kind of diagonal arrangement, echoed in the hills behind.

I second the others by complimenting you on the position of the two building gables with the two peaks (major and minor). A friend of mine stated one time that nature destroys what man creates, you've proven this point once again. Door is very captivating and strong because of it's placement in the image and I like the way the water splits the image in two on the diagonal. Super job.
