I was first going to crop out most of the power lines but when America was becoming a Country, Most telegraph lines were always a part of the "view". I will pretend the electrical wires are telegraph lines.
I decided to leave them.

I like it Dan; and agree that the power lines work here.
Thanks Jack! It was being "side lit from the left"..the roof is metal and was freshly painted for winter. The part of the roof facing right may need a bit more black. It is winter and not much "pop".
I will "play" with it.
Merry Christmas! A pause before the "rush" of the Day.

I like the power lines here Dan! Most of the time I find them very ugly and distracting but here they help tell the story and give texture to the image! Nicely captured!

Thanks Scott. I normally hate power lines but it fit. As I said, I just pretend they are telegraph lines for the town's train or stagecoach depot.
Hope you had a Merry Christmas Scott!

Dan, power line are sometimes annoying when composing a picture, in this case I support your decision to leave it, it gives context to the building and the history of old America.
The mechanic just delivered my snow blower and I am ready for tonight storm, this save me a rip to Maryland :-)

Thanks brother!

Hope you had a great Christmas.

Merry Christmas Dan...!!

We dodged a bullet here Marcelo. The weather people cannot get a forecast correct ever. We had some ice drops and that was it.
Thanks and Happy New Year!
