When Shadows Fall!

Whenever we go to Portland for my eye appointment at Casey Eye Institute, my daughter is our designated driver for the return trip. I sit in the back seat bored, with dilated eyes. Sometimes I nap and other times I have my camera out watching for a likely photo op. Wearing dark glasses doesn't help any, and neither does the fact that we are traveling at 70 MPH. But I keep trying. I was pleased with this image, shot as the sun was having its last hurrah of the day. It's the time of day when shadows fall.
(I maanged to frame the shot for a nice composition. No cropping done.)

I was reminded of a song, "Home (When Shadows Fall)" -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home_(When_Shadows_Fall)

Beautiful. Doesn't look real. More like a painting.

Simply marvelous, Vern! I so love the shadows of the tree on the roof of the barn, and the way the last light gives a beautiful glow.
