A style that I don't have many images of is the silhouette.

I entered a monthly contest and the requirement was a silhouette. Searching through my images I came across this picture of an old barn outlined by the setting sun. I dawned on me that it is similar in approach to the lone tree I posted a couple of days ago. Very few details to distract from the central image of the barn. The only other object that is discernible is the large oak tree.

I would imagine that farmers often see this sight at the end of a long day after the work in the field is done. What a wonderful view to accompany you on the trip home from work.

I hope your Monday is going well and if you return home at night...I hope this sunset follows you as well.

"Simple" silhouette but impressive sky to go with it! :)

Haven't been visiting here for a few days but I'm catching up today.

Very much liked the black-and-white instrument picture and the tulips, too.

Thanks Dawn Treader...I have been extremely busy as well and haven't been to as many sites as I usually do and it has been very frustrating for me!
