Time does take its toll - a photo on Flickriver

►Looks even better on FLUIDR. (Just click the Fluidr photo if you want to enlarge it)◄

I first posted this three years ago, and when I took another look at it today, I saw that it could stand some improvement. So, I punched up the contrast, among other things, replaced the original Flickr image and brought it to the front of my photostream for another pass by y'all.

This is the back door to the old cow barn on the farm where my wife, Sammy, was raised in the Berkshire Hills in Massachusetts. In the original color image, the barn was nearly gray, so I converted it to B&W, leaving the color in the rusty hinges and in the burrs.

Oops, I stand corrected. Sammy says this door was the manure trough door, a door with which she was all too familiar, considering all the shoveling she did...
