reaching for the sky...

it's old and weathered and simple

and

yet so stunningly beautiful

that it takes my breath away

~~

it's just an outbuilding

on a rundown farm

that I have photographed before

but

sitting in the sun this past saturday afternoon

casting shadows

in the late november sun

it was alive with personality and strength

~~

maybe someday

years from now

someone will describe me this same way

and

if they do

I'll be completely happy with that

*

this was taken with my new lens

~that many of you asked me about the last time I was out playing~

it's a 10-20 wide angle

and

it's just so much fun

~~

I could have edited this photo

and

actually thought about that for more than a few minutes

but

then decided to leave it natural...sooc

because

well

sometimes simple

just feels right
