One of the photos I have in the LPCA B&W Show is a detail of a building in Saranac Lake. At the opening one of my painter friends expressed surprise. She wasn't aware that I photographed architecture. The natural landscape is my primary subject matter but I am fond of old buildings, especially barns and they are fairly frequent subjects in my work.
There is a barn in Hannawa Falls that was sold in 2023 and I wish that I had had the resources to buy it. It would make a fabulous studio and gallery. I don't know what the new owner has planned for it but I wanted to photograph it before any changes are made or (God forbid) it is torn down and replaced with a tract house like those built around it. This morning I went by it on the way to town and decided today was the day.
I shot over 20 views and as I look at them in the computer I think I may have to go back for more. The ones here are in the order I shot them as I walked around the barn on the highway onto the street and back to my car. All were shot from the roadway (no trespassing involved). This is a barn that, aesthetically speaking, just keeps on giving. I hope you like them as much as I do. If you click on a photo you can see it bigger.
