Barn Charm #75 - Red, Right and Blue


Sunday after church has become my unofficial time to scout for barns. This one is outside of Lyons, Colorado.



This shot shows the cloudless, brilliant blue Colorado sky. One of the reasons I love living here.

Hope you're having a sunny day where you are.

Today is the last day to enter our artwork giveaway at A Joyful Cottage. Click on the cottage to get there.

Blessings,

Sunday Best - No Chrome and Glass Here

 I think chrome and glass is pretty. . . as long as it's in some other person's home. Not mine. Nope. I have no desire to live with the "contemporary look". Just call me an old-fashioned girl.

My grandfather's late 1800's steamer trunk rests in our lingering room. He brought it from Belgium and I inherited it when he passed from this life to the next. The trunk has traveled with me from Illinois to California, back to Illinois, on to Ohio and finally now in Colorado. It tenderly reminds me of where I came from.

 This morning I played around with photographing an old jar filled with white flowers. I shot it in several vignettes  before  placing it on the floor in front of the trunk. I think the processing of the photo gives it an antique quality. What do you think?



"To look backward for a while is to refresh the eye, to restore it, and to render it the more fit for its prime function of looking forward."
