A glorious scene for sure, Albert. You have captured the different shadings in the wood especially well and I like how the overhanging limb frames this great structure. I like the position in the frame also; don't think it would work any other way. Hope it stands for another 100 years; a really historic structure.

I love old buildings like this that have held together for so long. I remember from way back helping one of our neighbors with his "sugar bush". Wonderful time, and I still dearly love maple candy and syrup.

Like the nice soft light of this scene. Might be just a bit too much yellow? Looks like a great place to explore. Thanks for sharing.

Wow, this is wonderful, Albert. The colors in the leaves are so warm and inviting and they work so well with the aged wood of the cabin.

A really nice autumnal landscape Albert. Very quaint looking cabin.

Another interesting and beautiful image from your farm, Albert. The old cabin is a great focal point amid all the color. It looks like you would never run out of things to shoot on your own property.

Beautiful colors and light plus the centered building works very well in this almost square frame. The large image really gets your attention! Great capture, Albert!
