Description

I’ve gone by this old barn several times in the last year, just never caught my attention until a few days ago. The clouds in the background are the remnants of hurricane Gustav, didn’t have much of a punch by the time it reached Oklahoma USA. The sun was getting low and I liked the contrast of the dark clouds coming up from the southwest and the sun breaking through for one last hurrah before it slowly disappeared below the horizon. Thank you so much for your views and for your comments.

Sometimes it just takes the right lighting to catch your eye, and hopefully you'll have your camera!!!!!!

The setting sun and the cloud definately help make the picture. I like the compo too. Cheers, Clive

A special photo. There is a mood that it evokes in me of solitude, endurance, & the never ending power of nature. JDoc

man, this is really nice. Makes one long for the old country life. If this was shot in RAW I would suggest some HDR to really bring out the sky. Either way, a wonderful shot.
