  Happy Birthday Cathy! Now this IS a hell of a barn scene. I absolutely love it. All the contrasts of colours, the stripes of colour, the crop and the glorious trees. Even the fence and of course the barn!

  Thanks Daniel, you know it almost looked exactly like that - the radiant filter just pumps up the colors and brightness just a little.

  Thanks Tammy, it is funny how stuff reminds us of different people here at BP. I don't see a barn without thinking of Cathy or a fence without thinking of Bill Raco.
