This old house has barely a scrap of paint on it. I felt it needed a memorial of some sort and that bringing out its aged qualities would show it off best.

We were in the Waikato, beside Lake Karapiro, which is a hydo lake. The sun was shining on the hills around, but rain-cloud was looming up behind them in the south east. The hay barn looked small and vulnerable beneath the towering, dark clouds. I like the simplicity of this image, with the few elements telling a story.
