Cheryl and I went to scenic Kent CT this fall for the purposes of capturing some beautiful barn images. You’d never guess it but this was photographed on the edge of a downtown parking lot. Just behind me about 50 – 100 yards were hundreds of people taking advantage of the fall weather going in and out of small quaint shops and restaurants. However, everything pointing west, in the direction of my camera, was just scenic countryside.
Kent is situated in the northwest region of CT bordering New York State about a 45 minute drive north from the City of Danbury. There is a special charm to Kent and worth a visit. It’s also home to Kent School a prestigious college preparatory boarding school. There were dozens of barns to photograph. We only got to about half a dozen before we got hungry and tired and decided to point the car towards home. We vowed to come back, perhaps next fall, and stay in a bed and breakfast so we could take in the downtown charm and photograph more barns at sunset and sunrise (the golden hours).

Hello there! WOW! I’m very impressed with your work. You are extremely talented. Everything about this image is just exceptional and amazing; the Fall colors really pop out! I just love the foliage this time of year.
Thank you so much Kelly!
