The Old Barn

[Christopher Miller]

I never tire of creating new "old" photos(Sounds like a contradiction doesn't it :D) of our barn. I created this image a few months ago and was saving it for this theme. I overlaid it with three of my own textures and one flypaper texture after converting to B&W.

Your comments and critiques would be most appreciated!

Christopher, I really like the feel to this and the textured paper look. I might try and make the windows less transparent or clone the light from other windows and the stuff showing from the bottom right window. Very nice work as always!!:)

I love 'old' buildings, barns, etc too and this is cool! I would think a clone tool could minimize the artifacts in the lower windows. Or, if you have Viveza, darkening the windows might work too. Nice work on the textures.

Another great image of the barn! Love this one too. Very nicely done.

Thanks Denise, Barbara, and Indranil. Much appreciated! Relatively easy job to clone out the stuff in the windows and darken them a little.

Fantastic repost, Christopher. Your photos are going to end up in some Wild, Wild West book some day. The composition on this is outstanding - so balanced and so detailed yet your eye goes right to that barn.

Thanks very much, everyone! :)

Excellent repost Christopher!:)

Repost nailed it Christopher! In addition to comments already made, I really like the way the trees seem to bend in toward the barn, leading the eye there. Super!

Thanks Denise and Kerry. Greatly appreciate it!
