A Barn With Distinction
by Patrice Cigallio Wesa (Patrice Cigallio) 
Camera:
Canon PowerShot S3IS
Location:
Erwin Township, Michigan
 
United States of America

Photographer Notes:
The painting on this old weathered barn is titled "The American Gothic", one of the most famous paintings in the history of American Art. In fact, it is one of the few images to reach the status of a cultural icon and is thus one of the most reproduced images ever. It was exciting to see it on this old barn, especially since the purpose of the original painting done in 1930 was to depict rural America.

That's really awesome, Patrice! It appears to have been there a while by it's worn state. Great capture, composition and colors! Congratulations on your POTD win!

What a great find and a perfect time of year to find it, Patrice! Marvelous fall colors! Many congrats on your POTD here and at Steve's yesterday!

What a great find, Patrice! The fall colors really add to it, too! It's sad to me that rural America seems to be disappearing right before our eyes. Here in Western Washington, all the farm land just gets buried under cement. Congratulations on your win!
