It pleases me greatly that you all enjoy this - these old barns deserve some praise, rather being torn down. Thank you each and every one....

Heinz,
I took "artistic license" and embellished the colors to give it some panache! Am very glad that you like it.
Alles beste,
Lilia

Appreciate it, Terry.
Incidentally, the oval building on the left, used to be called the "lipstick building" because of its shape; unfortunately now it is known for the infamous 17th & 18th floors which Bernie Madoff occupied.

Natural portrait. You made him feel at ease; therefore, wonderful result.

If I am guessing right, these photos should have been taken during a camino to a certain holy place, probably a monastery, as part of a religious tradition.
This limited portfolio communicates the point of view of a fully accustomed eye.
This photo is unique. This photo epitomizes the creeping loneliness hiding in the rest of the pictures. I think that this photo is a suberb and exceptional photo.
It speaks directly to my soul. I feel obliged to thank Merco for this photo.

This one comes to discard all the weaknesses of the previous one. Nice composition. I do like the expression of the lady.

I regret but I do not agree with the comrades in Leica above. Too crowded, without a central point in the whole composition. I think that a 6 x 7 crop on the left side will promote the real point of interest in the whole picture, as the style of the lady steels the performance.
Wide angle needs a very close proximity to the subject and I know that many times this is difficult and does not work, but we must not forget that an important element in photography is luck and we do not always have it.
