Another old barn photo? Yes! I will always stop to photograph an interesting, rustic old barn. Soon they will all be gone. Until then, I’ll continue to capture their weathered wood, patina metal surfaces, and rustic architectural features. For the best viewing experience, click to view a high resolution version.

For Lent this year, I’ve committed to turning my thoughts and desires away from material wants and instead focusing on the simple things in life that truly sustain happiness.

I flew my new Mavic 3 drone in Ashe County last weekend. I sought out a local Christmas Tree farm and they gladly gave me permission to fly over the farm. I’m impressed with the drone’s dynamic range and thrilled to be finally seeing from above. For the best viewing experience, click on the image to see a high resolution version.

When originally built, I suspect this barn was used to maintain a variety of crops for the family and local community. Now the barn is only used to store a tractor, used to cut grass now growing in former crop fields. These old barns and family farms are quickly disappearing from the rural American landscape.
Cheers,
