The part of the house with the high peaked roof was built by butcher Thomas Ives, who later added a lean-to the south side and a kitchen lean-to at the back. Around 1740 the southern lean-to was replaced by today's gambrel-roofed addition. From 1750 to 1780, the house was owned by Capt. Joseph Hodges, and in 1780 the house was purchased by tanner Jonathan Andrew. The house was lived in by descendants of the Andrew family from 1780 to 1964, when the house was sold to the National Park Service.(Wikipedia)
The Moulton Barn is located in Grand Teton National Park and is surely one of the great architectural sights in the world. The mountains begin rising immediately behind the barn.
[Located in Grand Teton National Park, The historic TA Moulton barn is over 100 years old.
Started out of necessity to shelter his horses against the harsh winters of the Tetons and Jackson Hole, Thomas Alma Moulton didn’t know he was building a future landmark to a nation and mecca for photographers to come to. He and his two sons, Clark and Harley worked the land to provide for their families. They worked together along with their neighbors to carve out a meager existance along what was known as Mormon Row. Started in 1913, it took many years for the Grand Teton barn to be in its current form. First built as a square box, later on the peak and one lean to side was added. Later, when more room was needed, the other lean to side was added. This was a functional working barn. It was never intended to be the most photographed barn in America.
Two brothers, Thomas, John filed on their 160 acre homesteads in of 1907. A third brother, Wallace filed a year later. They had learned of the rich soil from other Mormon homesteaders who had filed before them. He first built a small cabin to live in during the summer while working the land and building on his barn. In 1912 Alma and Lucile and baby Clark, moved from Idaho to the homestead into a cabin with a dirt floor and not much more.
Up until 1961, the family worked the ranch to support themselves and help the community survive.] . . . {{{This information taken from www.themoultonbarn.com}}}

Older barn with long lean-to style metal roof, which is immense! A couple hens were roaming near the barn where their coop is set up.
I was told that the barn used to have a wooden floor, which had been removed at one point and left with dirt, and that the frame itself rests on boulders. Hand-hewn beams indicate old age, possibly 1910-20s...
Apparently their last snowfall was December 18!! Unheard of in a typical winter in Alberta.
We went to it by using a utility vehicle, this area at the far edge of their property, they dubbed, 'The Zone'. They made a lean-to and a rudimentary fire pit and found a freshwater stream nearby. The cattle left evidence of their presence before. 😊.
Dry and dead flowers, but the posture still lean to the light.
Thanks everyone for your visit and comments!
Sorry Sadie dog, 'fraid so, the river is too rough to cross, don't you like my lean to shelter bough? It's got a soft mossy bed. I'll get that fire going no matter how damp everything is. We are in survivor mode :)
Out for a much needed hike. This is a little place where you can make a small fire and take a break.
About 15 minutes before sunrise out on the edge of a small dry lagoon in the top End of the Northern Territory.
The sun is yet to rise to the right. The wet season is here and will soon be too boggy to drive into here.
There have been enough rains so far to boost the grass growth.
All these trees have a slight lean to the left.
The dreamland in my mind
so long sought
found in a real day "dream"
like a sanctuary of grace
lit by a magical sunlight
upon this very true genuxflexion.

I have a few photos of this barn. I find it very interesting in that it's an unusual shape for this area, and it's weathered boards and surrounding trees create inviting lines. I couldn't get very close, due to cows and fences.

Lean To The Left” — A conjunction of aspen groves, one with left-leaning small trees and red foliage and the other with large trees with yellow leaves.
My camera position may have a little something to do with the “lean” of the tree trunks in the middle of the frame, but they really were leaning significantly to the left. While our idealized aspen trees are tall and straight, the reality in the Sierra Nevada is often quite different. There are many groves of very small trees, and many others end u twisted and stunted after being pushed and broken by winter snows and winds.
The grove of which these trees are a part is Hugh, stretching from its wide, flat base far up mountain slopes toward a ridge high above. Here the color division — reddish versus yellow — marks the point at which the trees begin to ascend that slope. It is one of the sharpest divisions I know of between trees of different colors.

River gum tree and the milky way. On a still night I don't think it gets much better than this around here.
Avanti West Coast Pendolino 390104 leans to the curve clattering over Winwick Junction with 1S69 13.10 Euston - Glasgow.
Due to recent heavy rain this field has flooded more than ever and I took advantage of the conditions to record this image which I have never attempted before.
At first glance, I thought this to be a chicken coop. But the more I look at it, I'm not so sure. Maybe this outbuilding had some other use like workshop or tool shed. At any rate, it does have a bit of a lean to it.
Happy Windows Wednesday
Commentary.
Poolewe.
Loch Ewe.
Inverewe Gardens.
Leaning pines absorb
the desired elements
of the fragrant sea-breezes.
Floating seaweed.
A warm, clement, bright day
in early spring promises an abundance of life.
Loch Ewe.
A convoluted bay seven miles long,
and over three miles wide.
A shoreline exceeding twenty miles
and a centrally placed island of one square mile,
with a population of seven!
But here, in shot, is its most
sheltered and favoured corner.
Hence, the cosy village of Poolewe
and the profuse floribunda
of Inverewe Gardens.
Such an intriguing place!
Manual lens. Normally mounted Asahi Opt. Co. Super-Takumar 1:1.4/50 2066316. Probably full open at f1.4, probably at full zoom. Lean-to to focus. Some minor post production adjustments.
I was not able to see this beautiful avenue of tree's in its full splendor this year - work and time got in the way.
I have photographed woodpeckers thousands of times but when it comes to the Downy or the Hairy Woodpecker sometimes, I get stuck. The beak length may or may not be long enough to tell. In this case I lean to Downy because its companion was definitely a Downy to my eyes
You never know what you might find in an old lean-to shed. I wonder if this barrel once contained wine... or maybe moonshine ;-) The old picture frame just seems to fit here for some reason.
