Gray Barn

The Gray Barn out on Riggsville Road is iconic to me, as is Riggsville Road.
This structure fits into the surrounding area as well as any other farm house or out building. The acreage is large as the land is cheap.
Life is simple out here and you need to keep things basic. Good hardworking people live out here on Riggsville Road.

Gray Barn

The photograph centers on a weathered gray barn standing alone in a wide sweep of open farmland. Its wooden siding, sun‑bleached to a soft silver, has the textured look of driftwood—grain raised, edges softened, each board carrying the quiet story of decades of wind and winter.

The roofline rises in a gentle peak, the metal panels dulled by time but still catching faint glints of light, like brushed steel under an overcast sky. The barn’s shape feels sturdy and grounded, almost stoic, as if it has learned to lean into the seasons rather than resist them.

Surrounding the structure is a lush field of summer green, the grass thick and full, swaying in a way that suggests a warm breeze moving across the land. The green is vibrant but not neon—more the deep, living green of well‑watered farmland. It contrasts beautifully with the barn’s muted tones, making the building feel like a quiet anchor in a sea of color.

Above it all stretches a wide Midwestern sky, a soft wash of pale blue with hints of hazy warmth. The light is gentle, not harsh—suggesting either early morning or late afternoon, when the sun hangs low and the world feels unhurried.

There’s a sense of stillness in the scene, the kind that settles over rural places where time moves at the pace of growing things. You can almost hear the faint rustle of grass, the distant hum of insects, and the soft creak of old wood expanding in the sun.

Red Barn

I was on a mission when I captured this image of a Red Barn in Levering Michigan. The mission was to capture pictures of old barns and I had found exactly what I was looking for.
This barn reflects everything I was looking for in a barn, the color red, the sloped roof, the big barn doors, out on the countryside in the middle of a pasture with dark blue skies framing the building.

Red Barn on Riggsville Road

Riggsville Road is a main artery in Cheboygan County connecting Cheboygan Michigan to Pellston Michigan. Its upper rural Midwestern America in all it's beauty and glory.
Large expanses of land dotted with farmhouses and barns scattered around the rolling hills. Hard working people live out here and a few crazies too.
