I've been passing this place for a few years and wanted to get some shots before the old hay barn collapses.
I had the AF set for one shot and the center dot selected for focus.
Focus was on the barn and then recompose for the shot, just wanted to make sure the barn was in focus not thinking about the field full of yellow weeds/flowers ;)
Would I have been better off choosing multiple automatic selection for the shot? Seems like the field is a little out of focus?
My thoughts at the time were, I'm shooting f/11 so depth of field should make for a overall clear shot!?
Any comments on my set up for these shot would be appreciated. :mrgreen:

I'm not familiar with your camera, so can't help with the specific settings, but both shots look in focus to me.
I really like the angle that you chose for the barn (er, what's left of it) in the first photo.
 
Thanks BlackSheep. Maybe I'm wanting too much from the shot. I sat down with with my wife and looked at the shots full size, she agreed with what you said. They are in focus.
