I like the second crop more than the first one, and the original image, i guess you know that it is not perpendicular. It's slanted. But the second crop really stands out and has a definat definition to what it is, and draws good attention to the barn.

Well I tried to straighten it up using the wood slats as my guide.

I was at a horse ranch with my son (a school field trip), and the owners are building a small town like effect. They offer horseback rides and a petting farm for the kids. Inside this barn are all the tools needed to be a blacksmith...Boring right now, but by next spring, it will in place and opened up for the kids to walk inside.

Don't have a camera right now..Had to sell mine to buy a new laptop..My Desktop took a bad jolt of a power surge a few weeks back..MB got fried...HDs OK though..Got a 320g and 500g for sale...WD EIDE 7200rpm Cavair SE.

I am using my wife's Sub-Compact Sony-W120 right now...pretty decent at ISO 100 and 7mp setting.

Enjoy
