OSWOA - Broken Window 1 and 2

When we first bought the farm, there was a lot of work to do renovating both the house and the barn as they had stood empty for almost ten years.

The weeds and vines around the buildings had grown tall and many of the windows had been broken and needed to be replaced.

Looking out through one of the dusty and dirty broken windows in the barn I remember thinking how fuzzy everything looked through the dirty glass and the strong contrast with the sharply defined leaves through the broken part where the glass was missing.
