Distressed and Weathered Wood

We met a couple of aging structures full of character recently.  Cyndie and I drove past this little number on our way to Rice Lake, WI via Hwy 8.  I never tire of the texture and color of the weathered wood.

As we pressed on closer to our destination, we took a slight detour off the main drag to take a closer look at a barn we have admired from afar on a few different trips to Rice Lake.

We would have loved to poke around inside this old tattered barn.  This, too, had some fantastic wood.  I loathe the day when all we will see dotting the countryside is steel-sided farm buildings.  I suppose if there is some rust involved that may rekindle my interest a bit.

We’ve been so busy this year-end holiday season that we haven’t been backroading in what seems like forever.  Soon.  As the weather [hopefully] will mellow out, there will be more opportunities to get out there and capture more structures like this.  Yes, soon.  Happy shooting everyone.
