This barn photograph hardly seems to require explanation. I found it on a back road that's nearby but not a place I'd normally travel.
==========
366 Snaps: Some mornings you wake up with a photograph in your head. A year ago was one of those days; the photo's below....
I knew there'd be a place on Benton Road where I could point the camera east and show off the local farmland. And I knew that this lens could capture the detail the photograph needed. So I found that place, got out of the car, and took my photograph. Then I changed the focal length and shot a differently-framed version.
The silo--that silo--was part of the plan. The ghostly electrical tower, not so much, but I didn't object to it. The trick was to find a useful pattern of openings in the woodlots. And the haze--the layers work partly because of the haze.
==========
This is land I know well. When I lived in Lansing I bicycled this area several times a week. After I moved to Mulliken these fields were just off my route to and from work. Last August 3rd's drive didn't follow my work route; instead I sought out some photogenic farm equipment on my way out, and came back on country roads I rarely travel.
You could have called it a scouting trip, except I'd return to these backroads only one more time, again with a very specific photograph in mind.

This photograph is an outtake from my 2012 photo-a-day project, 366 Snaps.
Number of project photos taken: 20
Title of "roll:" Eaton County Backroads
Other photos taken on 8/3/2012: On my daily trip to the post office I sought out and photographed a Rose of Sharon that lives downtown. And late in the day I noticed some neat reflections off a bicycle in the basement, and had to photograph those.
