One from the May Photowalk Theme List for a change… it’s the back of an old barn, taken while we were in Barrie. I thought the padlock on the door was cute…
EF-S 17-55 2.8 lens @ 51mm – f.8, 1/30s, ISO 200
Lots of blue tones in these and I decided to ramp up the vibrance and go with it. I used a circular polarizer but did not have an effective angle for it in the full barn shot, as you can see from the uneven sky colour.
Just up from the waterfront is Dunlop Street, where the city has retained their oldest historical buildings. This is Downtown Barrie with interesting shops and lots to eat. This triangular old hotel is one of my favourite buildings and looks like it is undergoing some spring maintenance. (B&W Preset from Nicole Van)

Billz – this is your kind of restaurant!
The business section of our main street is all of four blocks long, so it was a short cruise up the backlanes. Charming…
More things I found in the snow, a continuation of my post here.
I saved the best for last…. meet ” Sioux “ (prn. Sue) who is simply a delight!
Horse’n around… Someone’s watching me…
I tried out a cloudy white balance for the cabin shots in an attempt to counter a very grey, overcast day.
A big thank you to Val and Elso for allowing me the freedom to wander their property, one of my favourite places to be!
Doorway into the old vault at our cemetary… once used to store the dead over the winter and the catalyst of many ghost stories over the years.
The thumbnails have been resurrected from the Fall of 2009. This could also be titled “A Study in Grey” as in grey days.
