The selective colouring makes the old barn breathe, as if it had a heart!There might be a mieacle taking place inside there!

Richard_Irwin from Belper, United Kingdom
I like its construction, the missing planks in the roof triangle carry the contrast to the snow and bright light, and the carving out front adds a bit of mystery.
