I also have been photographing old barns. One thing I will do is to remove the distracting power lines.
(I'm retireed from a power company. Seen too many of them!)

Great shots! If you enjoy barn photography, each year (except this one , of course) the Frederick County (MD) Historical Society hosts a "Barnstormers Tour." It arranges one day of docent guides and volunteers to show currently operating barns with historical significance in the county. The barns (usually about 9 or 10) are different each year, date back into the 1800s, and occasionally 1 or two are as old as late 1700s. It costs about $20 per person. You get a program describing the barns, along with a map & driving directions. All the barns are within a few miles of each other, so you can see them all in a day. It is usually on the second Saturday in Jun. I've gone the last three years and loved it!!! Last year there was a bonus of three, operational covered bridges also in the immediate area! Hopefully, it will be back again next year! It shouldn't be too far a drive from where you live, and may be worth an overnight trip to enjoy it so you aren't rushed! Here is a link about last year's:

Nice set, Hal. Old barns are a winner for me. Maybe they make me feel young.
