An interesting barn lies almost out of view …………

It was a hot Saturday afternoon in Harwinton CT while Cheryl sat in the cool of the car and I hopped out for a second to take this shot through the trees. This was not a planned shot, we happened upon this barn while on our way to another location. There was no access to the barn and it was only visible through a slight opening in the trees. Unfortunately there was a much larger, white colored, barn in the back ground which interrupts the flow of the image slightly.

At first glance I thought this was an “A” frame barn which I can’t remember ever seeing. However, when I got the image back home and opened it up on the computer I saw that it was a salt box design. It had entry and two floors in the front of the barn, (off to the far right side), and then tapers down to ground level in the back.

I wish I could have photographed, or even seen, the front of the barn as I suspect it was quite beautiful. Someone thought enough of it to install a new roof.

Photographed with a Sony A7RII 42.4 MP full frame mirrorless camera and a Sony 24-105 F4 lens @ 50 mm.
