Old Barn by ubobohobo

Old Barn

If you've been following my album you'll know we live on a Soldier Settler block with buildings dating back to 1920. (I know, we are only babies when it comes to historical buildings!) This is the second building erected on the property. It is the barn but it is also where the settler's widowed Mother lived with an unmarried daughter for several years. A week or so ago when it was surrounded by frost I was thinking about how horribly cold it must have been in winter. Actually today it's incredible to think we've even had frost. The grass is so green after the rain.
Forgive the early upload. I've an early start again tomorrow and there will be no time for photography.
Thanks for your interest in my attempts to meet the challenge. I'm thinking this will be the most difficult week of the month.
Nice colours and textures in the old building!

Looks a grand old building - and lots of lines which crucially join up with yesterday's. (Suddenly I'm seeing lines everywhere I go!) Great start well done

Great capture of this old building. I like the textures and the color tones. I like the way you have started your thumbnail challenge series.

nice lines and angles Margaret, and to think people lived in here, hope there was somewhere for a fire place and stove

I love the way the lean to is cobbled together. That barn says hardship and country life to me. Our forebears ( not so long back) had it tough.
