A blue sky and a white barn make a nice still life on a clear Colorado day.

    We’re at 68 degrees right now Mike, and I’m loving it! It’s going to get really hot soon though.
    I love the shot…as I said, perfection.

Great shot, Mike…I am originally from WI, and do not recall ever seeing a white barn! This farm looks we–kept, and by virtue of two silos, they must raise either beef, or milk cows.

I really appreciate all these beauties from CO…thank you so much for all your mini-tours of the countryside!

Just add an old mountain in the background and it would look right at home here.

    I didn’t at first. But as I studied the stillness of the shot I noticed the tiny patch of brown. Enlarging the photo confirmed it.

All barns should be shaped like this today. I know that every angle costs more money to build, but they sure do make beautiful structures. The pitched roofs of barns in colder climates were built in to prevent heavy snow accumulation, but the results are so much more appealing. This is just one lovely sight! The little windows at the top make me smile too.
