My name is Tara, and I was born and raised in Washington State.
Â
In 2010 I married Bill (bmac62) and retired ... two of the best choices I ever made! :)
Â
In March, 2013, we sold our home in Washington and went on the road in our RV full time. What a blast! There is so much world out there to see!
After traveling around the West for a few years, we got rid of the motorhome and are now spending winters in deep-south Texas and summers in Washington State. Spring and fall finds us visiting whichever place strikes our fancy at the time!
Â
If I’m missing from Renderosity from time to time, I’m busy having fun elsewhere.
Thanks for your interest in my work, and for stopping by to learn more about me!Â

It is a nice contrast. you should send this to the owners and see if they will fix up the old building, or at least repaint it! Very nice photo!

Beautiful photo...

I like this quite a lot. I've always been an admirer of old buildings, the way time and the elements ravage (or at least transfigure) them...and this image captures that perfectly. It's very calming, very comforting, and it's something I'd love to see for myself. You give such a tantalizing glimpse. Super work! Wonderful, rustic mood!

Interesting contrasts everywhere!

Foto molto intressante perche' mostra evidenti modi diversi di costruire. Photos intressant much because shows obvious ways to build.

Nice shot of some very large farm buildings.

What a beautiful setting but those barns are huge! I wonder what they have on the upper floors? A wonderful shot.

Those barns are huge! I do like the contrast, the older one more appealing to me. Cheers, Clive

I had a boyfriend in the Navy who was on the USS Skagit. Now I know where it comes from. This is a great contrast--and a wonderfully beautiful scene!!

So interesting! Your barns are a very different design to our, I must get out and find some to show you.

Really Nice . You have captured a little old a little new and a little inbetween!

Lushootseed Skagit means "to hide away". See I looked it up:) This is indeed quite a contrast but between the old and the new as it pertains to the two largest barns. Interesting how much alike they are. Thanks for a taste of the valley where the first settlers made their home in Washington state. Everything is always SO GREEN...but there's plenty of moisture for that!

I love looking at old barns so I am realy enjoying this picture. Skagit Valley is such a beautiful area, especially during the Tulip Festival. My daughter used to live up there so I've seen it many times.

Farming is hard. You have to up before the crack of dawn to milk those cows and then feed them. Before you go to school. I had a friend whose parents owned a dairy farm. I used to spend the night a lot and get up to help. This is a great shot.

Excellent shot of the barns....the older one looks so big, wonder how old it is.
meowserific
absoulute beautiful shot.!!!!!
myrrhluz
Both beautiful images! Wonderful layered effect here. I love photos where the background is a hazy continuation of the land rather than sky. Excellent capture!

Great shot Tara. I like those barns too, the building up on the hill kind of seems out of place!
