Linking to Barn Charm

Morning Tex all this needs is a couple of cows or sheep grazing:) B
Good Morning. Pretty scenery. Summer seems so far away! I am posting again after a long break.
Such a sweet scene! I love when I can get different angles of a barn. As you said, some of them are more pleasing to the eye!
A beautiful good morning scene, with the barn, pond, and trees. Have a great day!
That lake is interesting... looks homemade:@)
Good Morning! I love the wooden barns but the metal with the red rust roof have a special charm all their own. And when they are sitting out in a field with a tree keeping them company, well they are just special!
I have got to start taking more scenes like this. I see old barns all over and I just love them. Usually time is a problem and/or trying to stop on the busy highway. I always regret not getting a photo of old buildings I see. And one problem is that if I'm not driving, whoever is doesn't want to stop. (Poor sports!) :)
Simple enough and has lots of land.
You're absolutely right: the metal barn does not add to the rustic and rural scene your captured in the other photos. All-in-all, tho it looks mighty peaceful!
enjoy the 3rd shot. ( :
I love the wide open space!
Love the wide open space.
Olá Theresa;excelentes fotografias de belo lugar....
Cumprimentos

A great photo Tex.
The area reminds me of around where I live. I must take a few photos of the old and new barns.!
That would make a cute little cottage
yeah it does steal some of the ambiance but those two trees sort of smooth out the ripples
I think any of your barn shots would make a great jigsaw puzzle! Lovely!
Has it all!
Does everything turn brown when the hot weather arrives? I like my dose of "ranch" when I come over here.
I always love your barn shots, Tex. This was nice, even the third picture. :-)
Idyllic summer days. The days when my eyelids weren't frozen! LOL
I really have to start looking for more barns.
haha, you and me both! nice ones!
Looks a bit grey today, kind of like our Summer. Roll on Spring. Have a marvelous Monday.
Best wishes Molly

I like the way it looks, sitting there all by itself.
Love those barns!!
Bet this scene looks pretty much the same now as when you took them in the summer! Have a great week!
Great photo series.
Nordis
Nice!
I agree with Buttons that a few animals would enhance the scene. You're going to have to start taking Zim and Gem with you on these barn photography trips. :)
My kind of place. I can just imagine some birds chirping and some locusts singing.
Charming & isolated ranch in the wilderness !
Beautiful! I can practically smell the wonderful looking grass too.
Love the rusty roof! I am anxious to get back into barn charm when we return to Pa.
Appears to be retired now. Just sitting there with it's lakeside view!
I really like the rusty roof, gives the place some character!
It looks like it's in a lovely setting...
Love when you post old barns; this one is no exception. Awesome!
xoxo
A very serene scene...very peaceful....
ja z,on andere hoek daar krijg je ineens een andere kijk op de omgeving.
Nice pictures you show a barn :) Hanne Bente
I wouldn't have even known it was there. very nice shots.
Solitude. I like it:D
Kind of sitting in the middle of no where....
I love the rusty roof. I love to shoot barns as well. Perhaps the slight crop does take a little away but either way I would sure LOVE to have that much flat usable land and would fill it a few sheep, goat and of course more horses :).
Happy Monday Tex, have a great week!
Jen
Love the feeling of solitude!!
Prime pasture and no horses or longhorns. Hmmm...
Great barn today, Theresa. I love the setting. Neat!!!
You are featured on my blog today.
Hugs,
Betsy
That big barn is so far away, I can't tell it's metal. I think it looks OK in the scene.
charming barn scenes.
very peaceful! wonderful photos, too:)
That is a sweet scene. you should paint it.
Pretty barn scenes! The first one is my fav.
That field looks very sad,Teresa, missing a few animals there make glad it :))
a kiss
A fine series of this barn. I like how you moved in for increasing detail. Nice post!
Ohhhh, what a peaceful pasture.
Big butt barn?? You crack me up!!! Looks peaceful, nice photos! Keep digging these photos out. :)
Now thats what I like---a little water in front of my barn.
A barn with a pond...perfect.
I'm loving the rusty roof, trees and pond! (and - no snow!)
Oh yes, and thank you for your feedback yesterday. I am going to try to fix my email thing today.
It would be scary to contemplate the printing costs if this were the olden days and you had to print all of your photos....
This scene just oozes "Texas" to me. I need to visit my son in Houston to get "fix" soon!
That looks like a long narrow pond...kinda odd
You are a good picture saver t.....it looks a little lonely!
This post a good panorama of a country scene. I like the rustic fence which looks to be in pristine condition. No cow or horse will get through that one.
Beautiful...warm, calm, peaceful...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz I could go for that!

Nice country scene! I love old metal barns like that. I don't think I've ever met a barn I didn't like though!
Very attractive barn!
T, nice scene! Funny what two steps to the left can do to a scene!
Nice. The tree on the side looks like it's there to add support in high winds. Nice big sky. :)
Love a barn!!!!!!!!!
You've done it again: posted images from my childhood fantasy dreams!! PS Thanks again for you very quick note!! Did you know Charlotte's Web was written by EB White in Maine? I think that might be the ONE book I'd choose it I had just one!
You never know what is hidden in bloggers photos : ) Rustic it is!
Samotnie stoi na środku pola, a przy nie dwa drzewa. Świetny widok. Pozdrawiam.
Standing alone in the middle of the field, and with no two trees. Great view. Yours.
It is a sweet barn, wearing its weathered wood and rusty roof. Proudly standing with a pretty sky and clouds above. :)
Texas I only know from movies about the wild west. But here, very sleepy and peaceful.
Yours. :)
Peaceful. You are so right about the intrusion.
Now that bard really would make a great bird hide. A little window overlooking the water. From Findlay
And all that open space! So different from where I live.
Very nice barn Tex!Beautiful view!!Exellent shots!
Dimi..
nice photos Theresa; you have a good bounty tucked up your sleeve
lovely pasture picture and a sweet little barn.
peter
Nothing quite like the looks of an old barn. Love all the wide open space too.
Sweet scene indeed! All it needs is a guy fishin'!
Like the rosty roof! :)
That is an interesting little setup. It does look like it needs some livestock (maybe a goat or two).
Dearest Theresa,
Lovely barn scenery as usual from your viewpoint! Great photos.
Hugs,
Mariette
Interesting place, looks a beautyfull and warm place
Good Morning from Japan, dearest Theresa,
Oh, barn in the huge place; always amazed with the spaciousness♬♬♬ I agree and love the way you described about the looming bran behind☆☆☆ And also the balance of the sky, barn and the fence is great.
Love you always to my American photographer friend, xoxo Miyako*
I haven't seen 'em! Thanks
Aloha
Behind the fence, a barn, a serene pond and a gorgeous sky overhead - looks awfully good to me!
I especially like the first one!
Ever so spacious these ranches ...
Beautiful setting! Some of these barns appear to be a long way from anything else. I guess they serve a specific purpose where they are. And, seriously, is it too hard just to say countrified? :-)
Metal and wood are my preferences but, it's certainly in a scenic spot! ...:)JP
Yup, you're right - I like the photos where that metal barn isn't intruding on that neat barn!
It has everything in the shot...barn, pond, trees, fence and hay bales, now all it needs are some cattle.
lovin' the archives...
yep, those pics have it all, a barn,rusty roof, fence, bales of hay. You hit the jackpot.
It's great to have such a deep archive!
Hi TexWis! I know I have word verification on. If I turn it off I get many spam comments that I simply don't want to weed through. I know it's a pain. My apologies.
Nice peaceful scene. Looks like a grazing paradise.

Nice barn...my question is...how many acres accompany it? It looks like the land goes as far as one can see. Thanks for your kind words about the tulip. This course is way over my head but am loving the challenge. That one picture was dark and dreary when I started and probably worked on and off with it for a good 5 hours. I know it is crazy, but I love every minute of the resetting and starting over til I get it the way I want it. I have always been the lover of the old masters so my pictures were all dark, but this course is forcing me to go LIGHT. Buddy is now painting my art room upstairs white like the library room. Snow due in tomorrow night...LOTS of it. Heavy wet snow. Maybe I will get the rest of the week off. Keep the fingers crossed. xo genie
Very nice barn shots! Thanks for your email. I will keep it in mind for when I start linking to other blogs. Just have so much to do these days.
Rustic and rusty... love it!
Beautiful world, my friend.
It looks lonely.
Lonely little thing. Needs some cows or horses.
Interesting three photos with the slight changes . . . Liked the first two . . . and really like that gray pewter blue color.
beautiful and such peaceful puffy clouds ! I enjoy all your photos especially the birds the fences and the barns
It still makes for a nice scene. :) Lots of wide open space.
I want to jump the fence and run across that field! Lovely country scene! xx
Love this quiet picture, and the barns. Could just be sitting there for hours and hours...Enjoy your day
That is a sweet scene, I love those old rusty roofs. It looks like someone still cares about it at least a little bit.
Nice wide open spaces scene. Little barn with two trees for company and the rusty roof gives it charm.
oh il ne faudrait pas une crue car j'imagine l'état de cette cabane
The newer barns just don't have any soul. :(
I agree with Nancy! Those newfangled big butts are just clueless about charm.
Beautiful scenic!!
I like how you moved in closer & closer for a better look see! =)
I like the way you hid the big barn with your first angle! :)
Great country shot! I wonder what the barn was used for?
I love barns. There is a wisdom in them.
What a difference an angle makes... Beautiful little barn.
Love,love barns and ponds!
hmmmm - - - old and new - - - or crop the new out of the photo if you just want the focus on the rusted roof. Still pretty though.
I had to look up bucolic. I never even HEARD that word before.
