The Barn Collective


Shot in High Monochrome with Nikon Coolpix P510

  1. Hi Anne,
    I hope that this means you are feeling better. I have a Nikkon Coolpix P7800 and occasionally use the effects setting to take B&Ws. This products a grainy look which I sometimes like. I'm afraid that I need to get the manual out more often. Typically I'm a color guy, but I need to experiment a bit more. Nice shot! Tom The Backroads Traveller

    1. Hi Tom, Yes, much better. I have been enjoying shooting in monochrome. I find that I am distracted lately by too much color, and I see the essence of the image better in b&w. Just getting outside my comfort zone :)

      I did thoroughly enjoy all your colorful barns, though. They are spectacular!

    1. Thanks, Linda! I made the banner from one of my photographs, and I snagged the background from The Cutest Blog on the Block :)

  3. What a terrific photo of that incredible barn!
    My parents have an old milking barn on their property that I am going to take down and use to panel my vintage garage that the 56 ford pick-up my father restored 30 some years ago will go in.
    Cherry Delight is the name of my new truck. I had to buy it when my parents had their estate sale. How could I allow just anyone to have what my father put many a day and hours into?
    Have a great evening,
    Debbie

    1. Oh Debbie, That is so cool! Of course you had to buy the truck. And how neat that it will be in a vintage paneled garage from your dad's barn. What a delightful legacy.
      Blessings, Anne

    1. Thanks, Stephanie! I just had to find a Christmas theme and I decided to use one of my photos for the banner. Of course, TCBB always has neat and festive backgrounds. :)
