I don't know why but I just love this little red barn. There was a cow to the left (not pictured) that didn't like my being there too much. Since there were only three barbed wire strips between us, I didn't get to stay too long.

FIRST IMPRESSION : NIce landscape, nice barn, nice colors.

COMPOSITION : Nice composition! I lile how the trees give a sense of depth to the picture. The tree on the left distract me a little in a sense that I would prefer to see more of it. .. or less of it (maybe to remove the piece of blue sky in the left of the tree).
The picture seems to me a little unbalanced vertically, I think I would have prefered a little less of the sky and more of the grass in front of the barn. I feel like I am 'hitting' the barn right away when 'entering' the picture. It is reenforced by the two black areas that convey some agressivity as well I think.
Nice colors and nice opposition green/reds

TECHNICAL : Nothing special. I wonder what the shot would have been with more details in the black area but it does not distract me too much.

DIGITAL PROCESSING : not visible if any = good

MY OPINION : Fit the 'landscape' challenge to even if the barn obviously draw all the attention. Still .. it is iwithin a landscape .. not a pure match to the challenge but well enough !
I like the picture, my main comment would be that you could have step back one step or 2 to have a little more grass in front of the barn.

Good job

Congratulations on your finish, although I would have loved to see your photo ranked higher. It's a great barn and you handled the shot wonderfully. Cub

Beautiful landscape. I just love those old barns. like your frame too. I want to learn how to do that one day.

Great shot, I don't really consider this a classic landscape, but the shot is great. The barn draws the most attention and I don't pay any attention to the rest of the landscape. Good placement of the trees relative to the barn, overall great shot.7.

Good placement of the objects (trees, barn, etc) in the frame. Also, I like how the green trees and red barn contrast. I think there needs to be just a touch more space in the foreground if possible. It kinda feels like the barn is sitting on the bottom of the frame, and it seems off balanced to me.

great composition and color. i like the tree on the left but it's cut off a little too much or not enough. the trunk of the tree causes a bit of an imbalance in the image.

Nice shot, the barn adds colour to the scene but doesn't overpower the image. Lovely blue sky & great light *envy*, well done.

Nice job of illustrating the barn in the landscape. My only comment is that the crop of the tree on the left seems a little too far in. I think I would have put the edge of the picture so that it didn't cut into the tree-trunk.

I love barns--especially older ones. Nice framing!

Love the colors and the lines of the barn. I feel like it is cropped too closely though. The barn is almost sitting on the bottom of the frame. Back off some and include the more of the tree on the left and more of the grass in the foreground. Nice lighting.

Should have zoomed out a tiny bit to get more of the tree on the left.
