February 7, 2018 – Day 100 – iPhone 7 Plus Daily B&W Photo Challenge – The Barn – Today’s photo comes from Princeton, Indiana where I went to photograph trains. I’ve passed this spot on numerous occasions, but never stopped as there’s not really anyplace to pull over. When I saw the two horses in the sun I pretty much stopped in the middle of the road and shot the photo. Fortunately, I could see in either direction for a long way. Sometimes you must do “Whatever it takes” to get the shot you want. Still, always be safe!!
