I think the contents of the barn are the only things holding it up.
Mary MacADNski: Ha, The contents are coming up tomorrow or the next day.
That building looks like I feel today. Terrific shot, Mary.
Mary MacADNski: Are you a bit off balance or an awful wreck?

This is fabulous...so much to look at.
The leaning building is great, but my attention is really on that gorgeous vintage tractor.
Mary MacADNski: That tractor is something, isn't it! Here's another shot of it.

Superb capture Mary. It looks as if the roof was sustained by a magical force!
Mary MacADNski: I can't believe it's still standing. Seems like a strong wind would take it.

Mary MacADNski: It's there for photographers to find.

Look how strong and sturdy the house looks by comparison, Mary! I wonder if a couple of us could just walk over and push the shed back up? Don't you wonder, indeed, the story behind this...decay!
Mary MacADNski: I love these old buildings and do too wonder about their stories. Thanks, Ginnie.

Mary MacADNski: Ha, I heard that from Rawluk too. I should have had one of the versions of Sunday Morning coming down as the music. Heck, here's two:

I love this fabulous picture, love the red and the weather beaten wood of the barn.
Great composition.
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Astrid. I can find some pretty strange old buildings.

Mary MacADNski: Day after tomorrow will show you the other side.

A brilliant photograph.

So many questions and possible answers. Great colour

I'm not liking the comfort factor of the tractor seat....ouch!
Mary MacADNski: Old tractor seats are coveted. They are very comfortable. They can be bolted to your deck making funky, comfortable seating.
Canad must be a scruffy place Mary. ;-) I love it. richard

Love it! Did the tractor crash in to the wooden building before it, too, gave up the ghost? Well captured.
Mary MacADNski: I think it may have given up the ghost.

Mary MacADNski: LOL, Louis, yes, this is a lean-to.

What a "one-picture story." You have to wonder if it's sheer stubbornness holding up the shed. That is, if a building can be stubborn. Love the distressed red tractor!
Mary MacADNski: Tomorrow shows the other side of the building and we see what's holing it up.

I'll huff and I'll puff... that's a gem
