Here is a picture of an old barn I took last week. The first picture is the original. I used Wire Pilot to remove the unsightly power lines, and then edited it with GIMP. What do you think?

great photo....did you use a 'wire remover' specific program? Would you mind telling me how you did that? I have a barn px from my trip to Bend, Oregon ... I'd live to get rid of the wires.

Wires are usually eay to remove using either a clone stamp or a healing brush in Photoshop elements 9 or 10.

There is a freeware program you can download from the internet called Wire Pilot. It is designed specifically for removing wires, etc. from photos. I like to use it before post processing with GIMP, since I can't afford Photoshop.

Thanks for the info....I'll try it before I pp in lightroom. I use lightroom because I can't afford the time and memory cells that Photoshop appears to require for proficiency!

Excellent shot! You did miss a small part of the wire though, just saying before you print it out.... Well done!

I like the sky in the first one. More contrast between clouds and sky, to my eye.
But the building, and greenery, in the second is better.
Cool old barn.

Nice work on taking the wires out. Nice photo, looks like you were shooting uphill. The only thing I would have done different is left a little more space in front of the barn to draw my eyes into it instead of up to the sky. Just my opinion. Nice work.
