Crazy Barn

There is quite a bit going on with this barn, particularly on the roof, which is reaching for the heavens. And then there is the rail car on the right, adding to the frenetic scene.

    Would you ever post it? I’m so curious as to whether or not the colors are as sporadic as the structure.

    The colors are a bit flat, which is why I chose to go the b/w route.

Judging by the stuff around the barn, it must’ve been used for everything.

Man you said it: Crazy! Is that a silo behind the barn at right- center-ish? And what kind of “barrel” is that between the rail car and the barn? Man that is huge!
