In late winter and early spring in the Palouse, color begins re-emerging from the somber brown earth. Isn’t it a delightful thing to see just a tinge of green or yellow and a few days later it is a profusion of color and life. The Palouse, the premier wheat growing region of southeast Washington state is a beautiful place to see life spring from the fallow ground. Here near Colfax, Whitman County seat, a brightly painted small red barn competes with rich green grass and a flashy yellow willow for the attention of the eye of the beholder.
Thanks for joining me today for the view that is right here! ~ Madge

I came across this nice meme: 7 Super Shots by HostelBookers. I’ve posted my 7 Super Shots on my blog, and I thought you might like to take part as well – I know I would love to see your 7 Super Shots!
The land around this barn is so picturesque with its gently rolling hills. I always think of wheat fields as being long and flat.
Wonderful colours and textures.
Wonderful photo.
Regards and best wishes
Oh, I like this shot…
WoW! The barn is beautiful, esp in that setting! Love the willow, the green green grass, & all that fencing really sets it off!
Thank you kindly for joining this week’s Barn Charm! =)
Grand scene. I’m always attracted to telephoto views of the landscape and that’s a good ‘un!
this is so perfect it looks like you painted it all in the photo, so perfectly placed and balanced.
Spring is a magical time, for sure…and, that photo is STUNNING in every way possible!!
Loving this photo – – – especially the furrow marks behind the red!
Beautiful capture Madge!
Great shots over the last few days. Your squirrel is precious. and the neon ice cream con…tre bien!
Love seeing the yellow of the willows in a landscape. Its a sure sign spring is around the corner.
Now that’s a picture postcard if I ever saw one. Beautiful and lots of other adjectives!
What a beautiful place to call home.
Fabulous shot – love the colors!
Wow! Another shot where you got everything right, Madge! Perfectly beautiful.
Beautiful!
The variety of colours compliment each othe perfectly, they look like they have dropped from the sky into the centre of the shot! Fantastic!
Love it! Reminds me of the farms I would play at as a kid. Love the colors!
I love this shot Madge…the movement of the lines in the freshly planted field makes a beautiful frame for the barn. Well done!
