Thanks, Rick. This was a "drive by" grabbed on my way back from a wildlife area. My preparation consisted of lowering the passenger window. As I stated in another post, I wasn't taken by the condition of the truck and certainly didn't want to feature it. Dead grass would have added. I reduced the sky and grass brightness some and made sure the sky was knocked down enough to reveal some blue. Also, darkened the barn slightly to add "age. I kind of like the line of the barn, but am, otherwise, lukewarm about this scene.
