Colorado Barn

Posted on December 21, 2012 by Mike

A simple photo reflecting a deliberate life, where time is measured by which crops are produced according to the season. In this scene we are between crops, and all is still.

There’s both a sense of abandonment AND expectancy in this shot… like who is going to walk or drive out from behind those open doors? A really peaceful scene.. thnx Mike for sharing 😉

What a beautifully captured stillness, Mike. I don’t think I would be able to risk taking a look around inside.

  It would be a risk because to get to it you would have to walk over that lightly tilled land and farmer Eufus may have taken umbrage with that. On the other hand he may enjoy meeting you. Thank you Alex.
