Old barn with Grand Tetons background
Very nice image! Must have been hard moving those mountains around and putting them behind the barn (joking).
It was a chore to say the least.
Isn't that the famous barn that has been shown in color a few days ago? (Nice shot)
As rlaugh said, "Great shot!"

I don't really care about B & W photos but am going to try some soon. Saying that, I really like this shot, Comp and everything looks good to me. Nice shot keep sending photos. Thanks

I've been off line for a while so if it was posted here as a color photo I missed it. This is indeed a frequently photographed barn. One of the Moulton Barns in the Grand Teton National Park. More often than not it is seen in color and quite often with the barn as the main subject. I chose to make the majestic Tetons the main subject and the barn secondary. It was a cloudy day and with the snow on the mountain I thought black and white would bring out the contrast.
Has to be two shots merged together. I've shot the same barn and the Tetons weren't that close! Nice B&W though.
It is not anything more than a single photo, no merge, no PS. It's all about where you position yourself, the lens and camera settings. My Nikkor 18-200mm lens mounted on my D500 set at f/11, 82mm, 1/50 sec, ISO 100, on a tripod. My position was close to 200 yards from the barn resulting in a compression that makes the Grand Teton peak bigger than life. No post processing manipulation.
Here is a link to one of the color postings:

It's what my D7100 "wears" all the time and there is very little it cannot handle--it even does a fair job with macro-type photos of flowers, etc. I could wish it were a little sharper, but one can't have everything, I guess.

I wonder how it would look in sepia.
Nice comp and good use of location and lens.
