‘Peek a Boo, I see you!’ This red barn sits in the middle of a freshly plowed and planted wheat field in the Palouse, the premier wheat growing region of Washington State. Sitting along Green Hollow Road northwest of Colfax (the county seat of Whitman County) it exhibits a certain symmetry which caught my eye. Maybe the farmer’s tractor doesn’t have a working reverse gear anymore and he can pull in and out of the barn without it these days (just joking). What do you think??
Nice one Madge – I’ve liked all your Palouse shots
Thanks Paul… I really LOVE the Palouse, I can shoot all day for days and never get bored or tired! :-)
Absolutely stunning photography.
Thank you…
I love the composition of the photo and the landscape!
Thank you!
Madge, that really is an awesome shot. I hope you enjoy yourself if you do make it to my neck of the woods!
Thanks Shannon… I’ll be sure to get that perfect shot of some lavender and then I’ll stop by and let you know! ;-)
Another great shot, Madge. Wonderful composition!
Thanks Bruce…!
i think it’s beautiful! maybe it’s a stock barn so they can go in and out and get a good breeze too (my horse barn is open on both ends like this).
It is pretty… and you’re right… it probably is a stock barn! :-)
Never seen that sight in Haninge. Great photo.
Thanks Steffe… it is a sight unto itself in the wheat fields of south eastern Washington…
Terrific shot!
Thanks Kelly! ;-)
I reckon you captured the geometry of this just perfectly. I love all the lines, whether straight or curved, I love the muted colours, and the light upon the slopes of the hills. All in all, pretty much in line with my taste.
There is something almost magical about the subtle colors, textures and light in the Palouse, I’m glad you find the same pleasant qualities appealing!
Really like this image, it has a calming feel to it. My thought is the double opposing doors help keep it cool inside. But then I’m not sure why they would need it cool inside.
Thanks Rob… you’re probably right about ventilation… that could be at least part of the reason for the flow through doors, it does get hot in the Palouse in the summer and fall.
