old barn with rainbow

this is a pure grab shot taken through the car window en route to visit some friends last evening
Nice chance shot, Hazel. Well spotted! Love those old barns/granaries on mushroom-shaped stilts to keep the vermin out!

Yes, staddle stones - I thought that's what they were for, but you've confirmed it for me, thank you, Arthur!

Wow what a barn and great with the rainbow as well!

@judithg We've passed this barn in the 'front garden' of a farmhouse, and will pass it, many times but I never imagined a rainbow being so obliging!

I've never seen a barn like this, nice shot. Would love to see it without the rain. The rainbow was a nice touch.

@granny7 LInda, one day when i'm passing, I shall take a photo of the barn, possibly close up if I can stop the car, and put it on here for you.

beautiful image, i like the rainbow

Well -spotted Hazel and its a good picture for a grab shot through the car window! Plus a rainbow! Great vernacular architecture, its rather special I should think - its staddle stones (?) and amazingly constructed roof - and all the timbers.

@tobi Thank you - we followed the rainbow in the car for about 15 mins before I got the shot.

@tishpics Thank you and yes I love this old building but it always looks a tad precarious on its staddle stones.

fantastic barn!!! What a lucky rainbow, too!

This is wonderful, cool shot. You've really captured the weather of late, the raindrops on the windscreen and the glorious rainbow!!

@cleanfreak Thank you for your comments - it's the best grab shot I've ever had, through the car window at about 40mph, must be all those pics i've been taking for 365 that made me 'quick on the draw'!

How amazing to capture the rainbow-- I love it!

@barbcapecod Thank you. I've often tried to capture a rainbow and now, thanks to the extra incentive of 365, I've got one!

This is one of those WOW shots. I would love to capture a rainbow but am never in the right place at the right time.

@creativeamateur I've waited a long time to capture a rainbow so your turn may be yet to come..........
