Title: House of Prayer
Post by: myfotoguy on June 22, 2010, 01:22:39 PM
This was at a friend of our families 40th Anniversary party on their hobby farm. There were kids running around, or I would have moved to the right for a more 3 dimensional angle. Pulling back much more the hen house would have intruded on the left of frame. Ok, so there's my excuses ;)

I applied a little bit of a filter by Topaz called "Spicify". Seeing it now, I should have boosted the contrast a hint after applying the filter.

Some night, I want to get to this barn and use "light painting" I saw it before where the photog used a very long exposure and a high powered flashlight to "paint" the light into the scene at night. I think this barn would be perfect for it, highliting some areas (the sign) and keeping other areas less illuminated. Here is an example of the technique (last image is of a barn): http://www.daveblackphotography.com/workshop/lightpainting-technique.htm

Many a farmer would sit on a stool milking and while doing so prayed.  Yes a barn can really be a house of prayer.
