A nice study in shadow and light Catherine.

Catherine, this would benefit from more of a focal point. Nothing wrong with an abstract, but my eye just isn't going anywhere here. It doesn't 'say' anything to me. It doesn't really tell a lot about the character of the barn or the place IMO, and the graphic qualities alone aren't enough to hold my interest. Just my two cents anyway. Worthwhile to keep experimenting with these types of subjects in any case.

I'd have to agree with Marc, Catherine.
Those pipes, the window, that door and that weirdo shadow, looking more straight on, would have been cool.

I agree. Looks like a neat old barn, but it need more or less. I'd even go for a tight zoom shot of just that central shadow.
