Description


---
Take 2

Somehow in yesterday's post some curvature had been introduced into the horizontal beams. My sense of gestalt compelled me to fix it for today's post.
----
The repair was accomplished by using Photoshop's "Transform Warp" on the "Edit" menu.

This was the caption on yesterday's now-deleted entry:

Sorrel Hill

A small, stone-closed forebay barn with the inscription: "Samuel G. Slack July 27, 1852"
----
This image shows the work of three artists displayed in the Hay Loft area during the 2013 Bucks County Barn Tour.

My challenge was to get rid of a harsh lighting fixture in the upper right corner and the distracting flare it produced. It took several failed attempts and HOURS, but I learned a lot in the process. #10771451

Wonderful work on the fix, Michelle. I love the relaxed feel of this shot. Makes me want to join in on the conversation. #10771574

Excellent lighting and architectural deail #10772358

Craig D. Minton July 18, 2013

No harsh lighting here. I've been away for awhile and it looks as if I have been missing some of your great work. #10772509

Kirsten Kiki Kjaer July 19, 2013

This must have been a challenge, Michelle.
But what a result!
The composition is GREAT, with both upstairs and downstairs equaly exposed and with such great depth and details.
No disturbing light through the windows.
Don't know how you managed that but you did. Well done! #10772927

Jill Odice level-classic July 19, 2013

GOod job! What a beautiful space!You did a great job with what must have been difficult lighting! #10773352

Laura E. Swan level-classic July 19, 2013

What a great job you did at repairing any curves this had. There are so many lines in this image. You must have grounded your eye on that window frame for your vertical match up? I know I did.

How charming a place is this, to have converted this wonderfully large barn into a gallery. I'd love to go on tours such as this to take photos.

Lucky you and lucky us to get to view your adventures, Michelle!!

You did a great job with this indoor capture. Looks like an interesting barn on its own, and add the artwork, and there is more to take in. #10773742

I like the framing of the human subjects. Beautiful indoor setting and light. #10781888
