Thanks for the CC - I was trying to "yellow" it like an old photo starting to yellow from age.
I thought I could shoehorn (LOL) it in with the title, but I guess not. |

My first impression was "Cool subject, nasty colors." ;-)
I really like the composition of this with the silos falling on the right third of the shot. The provide a nice vertical contrast to the horizontal "motion" from the barn. I also like that the whole barn isn't showing, though I'm not sure why. The only suggestion I would make is to have more space in the foreground. If there is a path or anything going to the barn, include it to give the eye something to follow. (If there is not, get out and make one!! [just kidding]).
'Bout this coloring. The "sepia" is a good idea. I just think that it is perhaps too much yellow. It looks jaundiced. Maybe a bit more red to give it a more orangie look, or back way down on the saturation so that it is more bw with a hint of yellow. That is, of course, just my opinion, but the yellow is so bold, it almost detracts from the subject of the picture -- which fits this challenge nicely!
Best to you in the future.

Maybe the barn, but definitely not the silos. Nice sepia tone and composition. |

Lovely old fashioned feel to this photo. Like something out of a magazine from the early 1900's. Good effect - 8. |

I like the lines here. Don't like the yellowish cast; how did this look in color? |

Nice shot. Not sure about the border though. I like the color tones you went with. |
