This is another view of the barn at the farm where I work. I converted to B&W and then applied two textures from Shadowhouse. Comments and suggestions would be most appreciated.

Christopher, The aging technique is great. It looks tea stained. I like the comp but maybe w/ a little less foreground. Nice job.:S3:

The aging texturing on this is very convincing, Christopher. This one looks like it's from the 1890's or something. The stain is a nice touch.

Christopher,

Great job with the aging process! I agree with Denise about the foreground... possibly the composition would be stronger as a pano?

Christopher, I like the staining - esp. the wine colored one:S3: I'm not sure about the comp - I think I like it the way it is.

Christopher, wonderful textures - love the stains and the dark lines in the texture too. I think I would prefer this as a pano as well.:S3:

Thanks everyone! Much appreciated. The stains that you all so love came from this texture, Trashed (http://shadowhousecreations.blogspot.com/2010/02/trashed.html).

Here it is with a little cropped off the bottom. I didn't want to crop it to a full pano because I like the negative space that the field provides. Let me know what you think.
