The barn and outbuilding look pretty ordinary from most angles, but this caught the repeating triangular shapes, and the lighting seemed just right. Aside from some adjustment of levels, some cropping and the conversion to sepia, not much was done to this picture in post processing.

Greetings from the CC, this is a well represented subject, it is ordinary tho it is well suited both to challenge and your use of sepia tones. My biggest criticism is the bottom of the shot is overexposed and may have done well to crop it out. I think the angle at which you took the shot made for an interesting composition. I would like to see the front of the 'back' barn, exposing what is behind the run down broken 'windows'. This shot strikes my as a historical one, that would do well to document a community or a time in history. I think it would work well perhaps in a series of similar shots. Hope that helps a bit, well done and happy shooting!
