Sunday Stamps | S Is for Seasons

On January 24, 2021, in Barnesville, Georgia, the United States Postal Service issued the Barns stamps (Non-denominated priced at the Postcard rate) in 4 designs.

The stamps celebrate the beauty and history of American barns. The artist created digital paintings of four types of iconic barns found in the rural American landscape. With differing qualities of light and color, each piece reflects one of the four seasons:

• A round barn surrounded by the hazy light and warm colors of fall;
• A gambrel-roofed barn in summer;
• A forebay barn in an early spring countryside; and
• A Western barn on a winter’s night.

Ashley Walton designed the stamps with original artwork by Kim Johnson. Greg Breeding was the art director.

Information taken from here. This is my S post for A-Z Sunday Stamps.

Thursday Postcard Hunt | Autumn in Paris

I got this postcard from Germany, thanks to Postcrossing. I found the picture very pretty, and I wondered where it had been taken. There were no clues on the back. After a short online research, I found that the photographer is Daria Obymaha (Vilnius, Lithuania). The city is Paris (France) in 2015.

It had been posted here with the indication "free to use". Which mean it has been used in all kinds of articles, magazines and who knows what. Even for postcards!

I would like to know why the sender choose it.
