Farm Scene in Green Co. 2026-03-15 - Green Co., KY - Photo by Robert Ellis, robertelliswoodworking.com. Robert writes, "I turned off Ebenezar Road onto Blowing Springs Road heading to a specific barn about a mile past this farm. While I've seen this barn numerous times, I've never stopped to take a photo. Today I guess was different, because the wagon in the field in front of the barn caught my eye. Initially I pressed onwards to the barn I orginally set out to view, but I turned around and headed back to this location. Since the tree in the photo appears to be a hard maple, I'm also going to try to remember to revisit in the fall, hopefully adding some autumn colors into the next version of the image."
