It’s Tuesday! It’s Barn Charm!
This is a Highway 54 barn on the heading East side. We pass this barn all the time heading to Fulton and St. Louis(the Really BIG CITY)and I start looking for it before I see it and keep looking back at it until my neck nearly twists off. I love this barn in every season and the stand of trees complete this barn’s charm. It makes my heart happy each time we pass this barn and it makes my heart happy knowing it is there. We had some wicked wind roar through last night with some rumbly thunder and an impressive show of lightning. I hope the little charmer is still standing!
Linking to Tricia’s Barn Charm!
Love this overlay! Wonderful composition, my little photographer friend! I hope the same, but now you’ll always be able to see it the way it was!

Thank Evis! You are so right about seeing it the way it was. I have great faith it is still standing
Hope you are having good weather on topof Sunny Side Up Mountain!

You are right; this is a little charmer! I love old barns and this one is delightful.
January 17, 2012 at 7:12 am
Cecelia thank you so much for the visit! I know you are a busy gal! I want to stick it in my pocket and take it
January 17, 2012 at 10:30 am
I would feel the same way…this is a charming little rustic barn! Love your edit too!
January 17, 2012 at 7:25 am
Thankyou Janis! I love the rustic wood and tin combinations. Your charming barn is impressive and a very pretty shot! It’s always makes me feel good when it looks like they are working barns
January 17, 2012 at 10:38 am
Good Morning Pix! What a lovely old barn….it makes me miss ours even more. I love your texture too…very nice indeed! Give me an idea…I think I’ll have to go back over my old photo’s
Yes we had wind too and it’s still here but dying down. We had a bit of thunder and a light sprinkle of rain before it turned bitter cold. We could sure use more moisture over here. Have yourself a wonderful Tuesday!

Good Morning to you Maura! I know you miss your charming barn
It is cold cold cold here too. 71 degrees yesterday as we ran errands~weird weather. I am going to spend my Tuesday looking at barns and visiting your new blog post and trying to stay warm. Take care!

this is a cutie! love the texture you’ve used!
January 17, 2012 at 8:11 am
Thank you Tanya! Love that Kim Klassen
I am having the hardest time commenting on blogs at blogspot. I just get a big white blank screen. I hope I made it through to you!
January 17, 2012 at 10:45 am
This looks like it could be a Winslow Homer type painting. You spruced it up beautifully. Very peaceful look about it.
January 17, 2012 at 8:18 am
Good Morning Margie! It is a peaceful place even though it is on the side of a busy rural highway. I would have loved to have gotten inside!
January 17, 2012 at 10:47 am
This is stunning and I agree with the comment above, it is very Winslow Homer. It has the same atmosphere as his work.
Wonderful!
January 17, 2012 at 8:59 am
Thank you Isobel. You make me want to keep snapping pictures
January 17, 2012 at 11:03 am
Well that’s good, as I want you to as well!
January 17, 2012 at 11:38 am
I love the cool texture—it makes it look like it’s on canvas! How do you do that?
January 17, 2012 at 9:16 am
Hello Kate! I think the texture helps some of these weary old barns
I did it in Photoshop Elements and just added texture layers to the original photo. I took a tutorial from Kim Klassen but I am still befuddled and am going to take a class with her.
January 17, 2012 at 10:54 am
Not a me by myself kinda class though that would be cool but an online tutorial class she gives on Elements to people who sign up
January 18, 2012 at 8:57 am
That one is a beauty and so is the texture. Very nice.
January 17, 2012 at 9:48 am
Thank ya Deb! I am enjoying playing with textures
January 17, 2012 at 10:48 am
Great picture – I love the linen texture.
January 17, 2012 at 9:57 am
I am enjoying the textures! I am still having trouble commenting and getting into blogger blogs. I wonder if you aren’t on blogger it is going to be tough to comment.
January 17, 2012 at 10:51 am
beautiful treatment!
January 17, 2012 at 10:41 am
Thank you Tex!
January 18, 2012 at 5:38 am
Beautiful, almost spooky … needs a scary bedtime story
January 17, 2012 at 10:44 am
Hi Gobetween! I agree it could be a teeny bit spooky
January 18, 2012 at 5:40 am
OMG! I love this one!!!!
January 17, 2012 at 12:01 pm
Thanks Carol! Me too. I love all those old barns though. Rusty red roof, wood construction.
January 18, 2012 at 5:51 am
I’d love to see this beauty in all seasons. I’m sure it’s glorious with snow, with summer trees, and with autumn leaves.
January 17, 2012 at 12:23 pm
It is beautiful in the summer! Thank you for your visit.
January 18, 2012 at 6:52 am
I love this barn, Pix! The editing really adds something extra to make it a really special, frame-worthy photo!
How about that thunder? It made me think spring already with the temps as warm as they were yesterday. But it’s back to reality today! Chilly!
January 17, 2012 at 12:28 pm
Thank you Cheryl! I thought it was a scary night, I hadno idea we were going to have storms and in January that is too weird. Typical January now though. Brrrrrrrrr! And the wind!
January 18, 2012 at 5:53 am
I’ve past that barn many times. It is the real deal! I love the old time effects. How did you do that?
We did have some wicked weather rumble through last night. It boomed me right out of bed!
Have a wonderful day.

It is the real deal, you are so right! And yep I bet you have passed it many times. It is cool to know that someone else knows exactly where it is! Love that barn in summer. I put a couple of textures from Kim Klassen on the original photo in PSE9. Enjoy your Wednesday, we are going to warm up a bit
January 18, 2012 at 5:59 am
I meant passed
January 17, 2012 at 12:59 pm
January 18, 2012 at 5:59 am
Stunning! I wish I could just fix her up… I would crane my neck all the way around as well…
January 17, 2012 at 1:00 pm
Margaret I would love to fix her up too and I would love to get inside and look around. Thank you for your visit!
January 18, 2012 at 6:06 am
Beautiful photo of a very charming barn Pix! The rustic texture melds very well with the rustic barn. Awesome barn charm!
January 17, 2012 at 1:45 pm
Thank you Theresa! I love those old barns
January 18, 2012 at 6:07 am
It is a beauty…I would like to live near it!
January 17, 2012 at 1:45 pm
I think it is a sweet barn but I don’t think anything can be as cool and unique as your round barns this week Rose! You had a great Barn Charm!
January 18, 2012 at 6:09 am
How gorgeous is that!?!? It looks like a painting. I can understand why you look for it whenever you travel in that direction. I would, too!
January 17, 2012 at 2:38 pm
It is a cute little barn. I am always excited to go by it. I hope the owners never do anything to it but give it some love!
January 18, 2012 at 6:11 am
Another good one Pix. I look forward to each Barn Charm post.
January 17, 2012 at 3:23 pm
Good Morning Christina! I look forward to Barn Charm too. I can’t believe all the unique cool barns that link to Tricia’s blog! Thank you for coming by to take a look
January 18, 2012 at 6:13 am
Love it!
January 17, 2012 at 5:46 pm
Good Morning Nancy! Thank you for the visit
January 18, 2012 at 6:14 am

January 17, 2012 at 6:21 pm
It is hard to not love those barns Stacey! Thank you so much for stopping by Under the Oaks
January 18, 2012 at 6:48 am
Love the photo, and the texture! I guess that is something else I am going to have to play around with!
January 17, 2012 at 6:59 pm
For sure Linda, you would love playing with textures! I read somewhere that Florida was in your near future. Have a fun trip. Some good barns along that route in Northern Florida!
January 18, 2012 at 6:20 am
Boy, this barn exudes strength and tradition. You did a great job with the editing to give it such a nostalgic look. Well done! Great barn charm!
January 17, 2012 at 9:26 pm
Good Morning E.C.! Thank you so much
That texture thing is growing on me!
January 18, 2012 at 6:21 am
This probably has to be my favorite of all the photos this week. Your texture work is awesome. Everything about the finished product is sheer perfection. My, did you ever do a great job with this one.genie
January 17, 2012 at 9:52 pm
Thank you so much! Those textures just sort of make things happen
I really think I just got lucky. It is such a sweet barn to begin with 
January 18, 2012 at 6:24 am
I do like this one. So much character. I like the way the peak juts past the edge.
January 17, 2012 at 10:58 pm
Good Morning Patti! That little peak is interesting. This little barn, if you could see where it sits. It is so cute I just want to tuck it in my pocket
January 18, 2012 at 6:27 am
Lovely barn and editing!
January 18, 2012 at 2:05 am
Thank you!
January 18, 2012 at 6:52 am
Whoa! That texture is absolutely PERFECT for that shot! It fits it to a ‘T’! I haven’t been to Fulton or anywhere near there since I was a kid, so I’ve never seen this beauty, but I’m glad you shared it w/ us at Barn Charm!
January 18, 2012 at 10:28 am
Good Morning Tricia! Thank you on the texture
I am going to learn about this texture thing and PSE, I signed up for an online class with Kim Klassen. Photoshop is a big befuddlement 
But I just keep befuddling along!
January 19, 2012 at 7:49 am
Oh! I absolutely love this! The barn is perfect, the sunset adds to it and your texture is just right!
January 18, 2012 at 8:57 pm
I had some great light that evening! Thank you so much
I am all taken with your Barn Charm this week!
January 19, 2012 at 7:53 am
I like very much how you processed this photo.
January 19, 2012 at 10:32 am
Thank you so much! I am trying to learn about textures
Always fun to learn something new. Thank you for the visit 
January 21, 2012 at 6:09 am
I love it! Neat and classic. Lovely colors too. As if a thunder storm is about to arrive and spoil the sunlit evening.
January 20, 2012 at 11:40 am
Thank you Nandini! Thank you so much for your visit
I am loving Barn Charm
