 I drive by this farm every time I travel to Virginia for a work trip. It always catches my eye and I've pulled off the road a couple of times to snap pics of it but they were nothing special. Earlier this month I drove by and saw some guys installing a brand new fancy red roof and last week it was finished so I pulled off the road and snapped this one.

Looks a tad like everything is leaning to the right.

I like this picture, it would have been even better if the sky had some clouds in it.

Nice framing and good use of negative space to draw you down to the barn.

Right then, joke's on me as I now have to plough through 564 images and bump them all (yes, all of them) up. There'll be a third run through for fine tuning. It's day two now and I'm running late, sorry.

heh
