I am so curious what's inside the shed, because unlike a locked door, this one's door is half-open. Nice shot Grant.

@Howard F.: i know, but it was close to a house. i was able to take this unobtrusively, but peaking in seemed a bit invasive.

terrific use of shadows (as usual) and contrasts. I like the open door...

A fine black and white shot of this shed. I especially like the wide range of tones, textures and detail.
Fine image.

:)) I like this very much Grant, what a lovely shed, and the light is falling right across the door. I like all the trees in the background too...!

You get so much personality into these buildings. I like the arc of light that surrounds it.

You makes everything look great! I like the scuffed wooden planks at the wall, and the sunlight right over the door. Greetings from a ailing friend.....

I saw quite a few scenes this weekend that had me thinking, that's a gbe shot, how would he shoot that? And should I not take that shot because I recognize the gbe influence? or appreciating the wonderful images he is making, just go ahead and risk being a gbe imitator?

@Twelvebit: i'm honored again. i hope you took those photos though.

I just can't get over the the power of your b/w photos! This wouldn't be nearly as dramatic and bold in color.

I'd love to prop up this little shed and use it for gardening tools. It's a pretty little shed. It reminds me of a shed my grandparents had.

beautiful 'carving' of shadows and light here -- just love how they splay across the ground... splendid indeed!

Just the kind of shed that I love the look of but i would not personally use because it does'nt appear to have any windows. Too much potential for creepy crawlies without windows.

@lisa v: God only knows what lurks within this shed...

I really like the range of black and white tones...the light and shadows add that feel of mystery.
