Topping the barn

Is this a cupola when it tops a barn and looks like it may have served some purpose other than architectural. Don't know but it caught my eye and then I played in Color Efex which I haven't done for a while.

Oh, that's cool. I've never seen a cupola on a barn before.

[Dawn]

Sure is cool I too have never seen a cupola on a barn either

You certainly brought out all the texture and colors with this - what a fascinating find.

[Rachel]

Your processing has really brought out the wood textures. Nice shot.

[Debbie]

Really great textures

[Catherine P]

Great composition, and I agree the textures have been really well brought out here.

[Merrelyn]

I wonder what purpose the cupola served 😀

Textures!

[Taffy]

I like the processing you did to bring out texture. An unusual feature to a barn.

[Islandgirl]

Love your processing Joan!

Great shot! I guess it is- but I can't get to the dictionary right now as my granddaughter is sleeping in that room!

@olivetreeann from Wikipedia - In architecture, a cupola /ˈkjuːpələ/ is a small, most often dome-like, structure on top of a building.[1] Often used to provide a lookout or to admit light and air, it usually crowns a larger roof or dome. This could provide a lookout or could admit light and air. So could be one.
