My spouse told me I could do nice photos with those old barns near home. I went at the end of the day when light was aweful and had to use a tripod + trigger.
She was right... it did made some nice winter scenes!

Excellent captures! Thanks for sharing. Being from sunny South Africa I'm not likely to see and experience scenes like this ever! :-)
Best.

Absolutely logical choice from Flickr. The cyan tint is unique. Everything is blending well into this. The composition is very nice and the photo creates a beautiful atmosphere. Excellent work.

Thanks for your nice comment. Actually, I didn't know it had a cyan cast... since I am failry color blind (not completely, but I can't see well the pale or dark colors), but after some moderate PP, it was pleasing to my eyes nonetheless (I see most of it in b&w, with some beige tones on the plants).

There is nothing like a little cold weather to get the feet moving, the fingers clenching, the teeth chattering, and the blood flowing.

Sorry to learn you're afflicted with colorblindness too. My vision is like Vincent van Gogh's (according to my optician), I'm only "certain" of yellow and blue, identifying all the other colors is a real challenge. Best camouflage is an orange object on a field of light green, the object totally disappears. It's very frustrating at times. I don't know if Quebec is more affected by this condition (we had only 5000 French ancestors in 1660 and we are all somewhat related) but it doesn't make us worst graphic artists. What I see is very beautiful, even If I can't name the colors in front of me. Our cameras record the true colors for us and restitute to others with normal color vision what we saw and loved so much.


Best regards

since I am failry color blind
The PP gives the images a nice feeling. There are degrees of colour blindness (as you know) and there is no adverse impact here. But it brings to mind the publication of a very large photographic work (a coffee table type book) on Papua New Guinea many years ago, where they gave the editing/PP job to someone who was quite severely colour blind. The result was 'interesting' but not in a good way.
