Beamer's Barn

Beamer's Barn, by Mary Stebbins Taitt. This old barn was located
across the street from Beamer's Falls about 8 miles east of Hamilton.

Considering that it must be abandoned now, it still has a sort of cozy look. That feeling must come from the colors. I like this scene very much.

Thanks so much, Bobbie. I like it too. I messed with the colors slightly. It was a very dark rainy day and they were a little dull.

This photograph is exquisite, Mary. I like everything about. As bobbie says, I believe the cozy feelings do come from the colors.

Thanks so much, Mick. I've discovered you can open ordinary (nonraw) pix in the raw dialogue of Photoshop CS3 and tweak the colors just a froghair for a sweet look. Raw manipulated photos all have a certain look to them--different than other photoshop pix--I can't quite put my finger on it yet. I didn't change it much, just a bit.

I love this kind of painting and setting , they give us the feeling of the time passing by, our lives beeing just a small link in the big life chain

Ah Mary....great barn shot... the trees have no leaves...I wonder what it would look like in the spring/summer??

Thanks, Kerri! :-D

I am not sure we've been there in the summer--we always go in November to celebrate the anniversary of choosing to court each other.

I bet it would be pretty in Spring, summer, early fall (when there are leaves) and winter (when there is snow). If I ever go back another time, I'll send another postcard.
