Anne Elliott's photos with the keyword: at side of the road

This Gothic Arch Barn (?) was seen on 14 April 2014, when my youngest daughter and I spent the day driving some of the backroads SE of Calgary. Some of the roads were familiar to me, and others were new territory. A few days ago, I posted a photo of this barn, taken from the opposite side of the road, but after going closer, I was able to get this old styled, metal windmill in as well. I love the way the pretty much flat, endless landscape of the prairies is dotted here and there with an old barn or an abandoned farmhouse. Makes one want to photograph them all before they eventually rot and tumble to the ground. I had come across a photo of this little red barn on the Internet and knew that I wanted to find it. Superman's farm from the 1978 movie, "Superman: The Movie" had also been on my list. This is one of my favourite ways to spend a day!

This Gothic Arch Barn (?) was seen on 14 April 2014, when my youngest daughter and I spent the day driving some of the backroads SE of Calgary. Some of the roads were familiar to me, and others were new territory. This photo was zoomed in, which meant that the Rocky Mountains in the background look much closer than they really are Unfortunately, in order to get the barn at this angle, I couldn't avoid the road. After crossing the road, I did take a handful of shots that included an old windmill "tower" (not sure what the proper name is) nearby, which I will post sometime.

The sun is shining this morning, which feels so good after the snow in the last few days!
