You've created a lovely image of this barn Bill.

12/23/2004 7:44:32 PM

Bill, I save the word "awesome" for photos such as this.
I especially love the subdued lighting on the horizon, which offsets the brightly-lit wreath and windows perfectly.
What a special, beautifully composed image.
May your Christmas be as peaceful as the feeling in this photograph.

12/23/2004 8:41:26 PM
