Michigan is full of beautiful, rustic looking old barns. This one is over 100 years old and near the Ada area, driving down Bailey towards Lowell.
Here’s a couple of links to more Michigan barn HDR pictures that I’ve taken: Barns 1 Barns 2 … the last photo in the Barns 2 link is a classic!
I’ve had a lot of requests for prints of this photo, so have created a link where you can order it in a variety of sizes, unframed or framed. Just click here for more information.
Your gallery is fantastic!!

I lOVE to see old barns. It takes me back to a time that almost stands still in time. It makes me happy that there are still farms and barns around.

We made our move to northern Michigan 3 years ago, I have really noticed the historic beauty of these barns just along I-75 each time I travel downstate. Any of these barns captures my soul, some of these barns must date back to the 1800′s. Most still stand strong, others are in need of repair or caving in under the winds of time, yet still grab my attention. I was wondering if the barn out in a field somewhere out by Irish Hills with a MONA LISA painted on the barns side is still standing. Not sure of exact location, (Denton road maybe?) but those who might know of this barn in their area would know if it still exists. Back in the late 70′s we would drive around that area & when we drove along on this curved road, our vehicles headlights would hit the side of the barn & a GIANT portrait of an original Mona Lisa’s face appeared rising out of the ground, that was painted on the barn. So AWESOME, awe inspiring. This was a true work of art to see of gigantic proportions on an old barn & I haven’t seen it since, but searching for it on the internet. Any clues???

Thanks for the info about the Mona Lisa barn! I haven’t heard of it, but now I want to find it and get a photo. If anyone knows of this, please tell me the address and I’ll get the picture.

Don’t know of the Mona Lisa barn, but I do know of one that has 2 beautiful horses painted on the side.. Just outside of Kalamazoo on F ave by the Thornapple Creek golf course.
