Strangely, I was thinking about this photo the other day and trying to remember where I saw it and why it came to mind. Although I'm sorry for the context of the thread I saw it in again, I am glad (and a little taken aback) that I found it again and have marked it as a favorite so I won't lose track of it again. As you can see, I was one of your "10" votes ten years ago, and commented so at the time. My opinion has not changed over the past decade. This one truly struck a chord. |

Hi Ray, I apparently gave this a 9 during voting way back when. Terrific shot and if it had been in a smaller challenge it probably would have ribboned and got a higher score.
Great vibrant colors and excellent composition for this beautiful scene. |

Superb autumn colors here, composition is excellent. Diagonal lines and the sky fill the frame nicely. |

Whoa! how beautiful, the stunning colors, which I don't get in the desert on my barn shots... this is great as a fan of barns, I'm certainly going to look through your portfolio.

Beautiful! I absolutely love those vibrant autumn colors which contrasts visibly with the drab color of the barn not to mention it is a symbolic compliment to the 'falling to pieces' barn. Love how the road acts as a leading line for the eye to travel on to look at the scenery in this shot. |

Wow! Some beautiful country in your area. This is a stunning photo. The color and the lines (leading road, horizontal hillside) work very well to create impact.
I'm hoping for some fall color myself as I'm planning an outing with a friend of mine (former DPCer 'nova') in the Shenandoah's a couple weeks from now.
Now, if I could only find some foggy hills, a weathered barn... :P |

What a beautiful scene. I like the way you placed yourself on the left side of the road so that the road divides the lush looking green grass and the barn from the colorful hillside. |

I really enjoy this shot ray! I like how the colors of the background and then the browns of the barn balance each other and then that green from the grass is just so appealing. you have a very nice sense of color! I also enjoy the use of the leading line of the road that just leads you to that barn. I think the only actual critique I can offer is the focus seems a tad off, but I think it may be the lens. I just got a new lens to replace that and was surprised how not sharp that lens is. it's a good lens, just not tack sharp like some others are.
overall great shot though, wish I would have voted in this challenge. |

How could this have not made the top 20! I don't understand. But great score anyway, and better than winning, you have this work of art. |

Amazing colors, textures, composition and light. I love this shot, for what my opinion is worth. This is a great example of a landscape shot, and I hope it gets the attention and appreciation it is due. Good luck. |

The cracked blacktop adds a lot to the age/rustic feel here.

7 - Like the combinations of colors and grays. I know this is 720, but still 'wish it were bigger' - an image that likely cannot be appreciated in this medium. More detail/depth discernible, be even better, but difficult. Nice scene. Also like the cloud capture over the mountain/hill top. The top part of the image isn't as 'rich' as the rest of the image, but I do understand that you've likely left it there for compositional balance, as well as color. Lines are good. Up to 7 from 6. |
