BEAUTIFULLY CAPTURED STEVE! I LIKE THE WAY THE ROAD LEEDS THE EYE TO THE SUGAR SHACK!! BILLY #639669

Great capture Steve, I agree with Billy, I like how the road leads your eye to the shack. #4178864

Hurk (Steve) Hurkett April 17, 2007

Thanks Billy and Shelly ... that road actually bears to the left just past the sugar shack ... and eventually makes it's way to a paved road ... this place (if I remember correctly) is near Woodstock, VT ... #4179021

Love this old barn! What a great job you did with the effects and just love the colors. Such a strong scene. I hope you don't mind me saying this, but you have certainly improved and I do mean that in a good way, maybe a better word is you have come along way, you have spread your wings!
