I like the exposure of the barn and the ground around it. The sky is rather flat and featureless. I do see some tonal variations in the sky which could have been brought out a bit more.

The biggest issue I think is the subject. My vision keeps vacillating between whether the barn is the topic of the photograph, or its setting within its surroundings.

If the barn is the subject, it should be framed so that it is featured by reducing the amount of foreground and probably from a different viewpoint. If its placement within it surroundings is the topic, then a bit more of the area around it should be in the photo.

Barn was the subject, had several limitations on trying to catch this barn. Should have cropped more for one thing I guess. Thank you very much for your input. It is greatly appreciated.

Since I am all new to PP, and fairly new to photography, may I ask what you did to improve it?

Increased contrast and clarity in LR and reduced highlights.

I guess I need to look at purchasing LR. Just used the software that came on my laptop. It is called iPhoto.. I greatly appreciate all the help and others have given me. I will eventually become a decent photographer.
