Old Barn in Wheat Field - ©Gary Hamburgh 2010 - All Rights Reserved
One of my favorite things about photographing in the Palouse is the wide expansive vistas that are available. It makes it very easy to isolate a subject without a lot of wires and clutter around.
The barn in this image was taken in the afternoon and was very easy to shoot from any angle because of the great openness surrounding it. As many times occurs in the Palouse, clouds come up in the afternoon which add to the image. This ability to isolate the subject creates a striking image with simplicity.
To experience this simple beauty, I would suggest a trip to the Palouse area of eastern Washington. Harvest is just starting to get into full swing in the next couple of weeks so the images should be amazing.
beautiful work Gary, thank you for sharing your insight and talent!

Great shot! Vivid color! I do like the old barns and the way the photograpgh sometimes. It really makes you wonder about its history.
