I love the addition of the barn.  I think it adds much to the picture 
both compositionally and narratively.  The shadow seems a bit 
disconcerting, not because of its sharpness, but because it is not 
laying flat.  It seems to be falling on an incline.  I don't know if 
your placement of the barn is physically sensible or not.  It may be one 
of those moments when the brain won't accept the illustion no matter how 
correctly it is mapped from reality.  This happens all the time when 
painting or drawing.  The artist has to change the actual record of the 
  tones or edge angles or whatever to get a result the mind accepts as 
more convincing.
