While I was at the barn yesterday I took a bit of a look, other than just the usual sighs over the fact that it's falling down and we can't afford to do anything about it. Old wood has such character!
Didn't realize how colorful this one was until I looked at it on the computer.
And this one has color, shape, texture... whatever you want.
I have a mystery cocoon. With or without an ID... come back tomorrow to see.

Old wood is always better than dead wood.
I really like the way you not only see, but you perceive what is there.
More of the charm
of decrepit old barn!
I have a fascination for old barns. I imagine if it was my barn that was old and in need of repair I wouldn't be so attracted to it but I have always loved the looks of them. They just have so much character, a story to tell.
Someday you will have some beautiful wood to make picture frames, tables, whatever. Great photos!
It's beautiful. :)
What? A cocoon???
rainfield- Yes... deadwood has all those bad connotations
Chuck- thanks! I try, but I don't seem to see some of the stunning views that "real" photographers get
vanilla- a friend with rhyme is
good for all time
Ann- they really do, but I would be happiest if ours could be kept from falling down, and have usable character, but alas... it's not looking good for that outcome
Loretta- heck- I could rip off some of those loose boards now- might as well
Lin- in small spots, it really is.
I have always loved seeing old barns in the distance but I guess they are much more useful to their owners if they are sturdy and can seve the purpose for which they are intended.
