Road Trip...Abandoned Barn

Continuing down the road toward the city we came across this old barn. It would have been not that many years ago when this was all farmland. Today it is a rapidly developing neighbourhood. There were a few other buildings here as well and tomorrow I will post a panorama shot of the entire area.
Have a great Easter Weekend Everyone

ruins make such great photos.

[Anita Campbell]

I love taking photos of old and abandoned buildings. This one definitely fits the bill and more. I hate to see all the open spaces turned into so many neighborhoods and commercial malls.... But.... that's the way things are these days. Down here too!

[Cathie]

Beautiful old barn, Brian.

[Jo Ann Bellone]

Love old barns, and like telephone booths I wonder if our children will know what they are.

[Susan Klassen]

Beautiful! I love taking pictures of old buildings too.

[mervyn hobbs]

It is a pity because you can see it was a lovely barn.

[Graham Thresher]

Love the retro feel to this capture.

What a cool barn

[Fisher Family]

Great picture. The b&w really suits the subject. Katharine

[Ann H. LeFevre]

It's so sad to see farmland sacrificed to development. We just visited some friends and saw a similar thing. I like that you shot this in b/w- the starkness adds to the loss.

[Ivan]

Hoe sad, beautiful barn, shape. Well recorded.

[Molly]

Good capture of this crumbling building.

[Chris Johnson]

Looks like its been through a lot! The b&w works great here!

@anazad511 It is a sad thing indeed

[Stephanie Swift]

Sad but interesting. I like the shape of the roof.

[Carole Imes]

Sad to see it falling into ruins, but barns make such great photo ops no matter what the condition. You did very well in capturing this scene in black and white.

[❀ Lynn]

Sad for the old barn...you can see the encroaching new development behind it.

[Néfertiti]

c'est triste pour cette grange de tombe en ruines

[Lyn Todd]

striking architechture

[Tony]

Lovely reminder of ages past when even the humble barn was individually designed and lovingly constructed.

[Vicki Dixon]

almost looks like a tornado hit

[Diane]

Fascinating shot! Like Vicki, my first thought was maybe a tornado had struck it. Nice in B&W.

[Taffy]

Terrific shot -- it makes me wonder at the story behind the buildings, before the decay, what happened to the owners? Why is it in this shape? Wonderful story-telling image!

[Mrs. Smith]

Wonderful farm scene!

[Bankmann]

I’d love to explore this place… In fact I’d lve to do more rural and urban decay… It’s always such a good subject for b&w photos.
