Three Visions of a Tree

I really like the picture of a solitary tree in a field.  They are relatively hard to come by, though.  Especially with nothing in the background but open skies.  This is the closest that I have come.  I took a bunch of pictures under different lighting conditions.  Not sure which is the best.  I thought that the one with the sun shining on it directly would have been the most interesting in terms of tones and colors, but the wife didn't like it at all.  Any thoughts?

Barn #1

To motivate myself to take more pictures, I am going to start a new series.  I really like barns.  You see all sorts of barns in Washtenaw County, nice barns, run down barns, red barns, grey barn, etc.  So, I am going to take a bunch of pictures some barns and post them here.  I will post 52 of them here.  I'll post other pictures too, but this will force me to use my camera more.

52 Barns.  Here we go!

Tree and Cloud

I am not really sure if this is a good picture or not, but I like it.  I like the greens and blues, as well as the placement of the tree with respect to the cloud.  It is very simple, too. I like it.

And Another

I am going through pictures that I have taken over the last year and playing with them.  I am not picking out anything that I have uploaded before, but trying to find other nice pictures.  Now that I know how to use Photoshop a bit, I am cleaning them up and playing with the color and lighting and such.  Almost as much fun as taking pictures!
