Of course, I could always just ask the owner if they'd allow me to shoot the barn on their property, but I've never had to guts to do that....so I usually have to drive by a lot of really cool looking places that I never get to shoot.

It's pretty hard to find an abandoned property that'll allow me some 'freedom' to shoot without worrying about being shot by an owner.

great pics! Maryland countryside looks beautiful.
you shot this with the 17-85? I've never been able to get that much bokeh with that lens, what focal length and aperture was this at?

Thank you! Consider it an open invitation to visit VA and hike or wander around some farms sometime. I meant to tell you that you inspired me to ask the owner of one of the farms I've had my eye on for a while for permission to come shoot. She said it was fine, so I just need to pick the right day for it. Thanks!

COME AT ME BRO!
omg your pictures are absolutely breath taking! I really need to sit down a figure out all the ins and outs to my d-slr. I just wish it wasn't so could out right now. I would love to be out taking pics. Just have to wait a few more weeks till I go down to Florida to visit the fam. Your pics make me want to run out and take some shots right now lol
