Took some more shots looking upward at the barn side this morning. I shot this one with a shallow DOF. Is this an improvement over the last shot I posted? Any C&C are welcome!
Olympus SP-550 UZ
f5.6 @ 1/200, ISO 100, -0.3 EV
Aperture priority mode, pattern metering, auto WB
Processed in PS CS2; rotated a bit to straighten, cropped, curves adjustment, selectively darkened the top, converted to B&W with channel mixer and hue/saturation layer, and added a slight vignette to burn edges

Christopher, You've got good sharpness where needed. The conversion looks good! Might crop the top a bit. You really are workin' it!!

Chris, if you do this again, move your camera so the front part is in the right corner and the band goes diagonally across the frame a bit more. Might make for an interesting image that way as well!
I do like this one better than the last one...better conversion and more DOF. Nice!

Thanks for the comments! I will certainly try this again, I'm finding it to be such an interesting subject!
