Back to the Ruin

[elephunk]

I've finally worked through my series of the abandoned farmhouse near my place - until my next visit anyway. It's such a great subject I'm sure I could get several more shoots out of it.

My last few shots to share are HDR images. I like them but I think I'm coming to the stage where I'd rather try to get the natural light right or supplement with strobe to get a good shot. O dear, I may be turing into a purist!










Thanks for looking.

Absolutley gorgeous. The HDR is spot on, just enough to bring it to life with that vivid color. 2nd and 4th are my favorites, with perhaps just a bit of separation between the metal chunk and the wooden house welcome in the latter.

very beautiful country! I like to take pictures of abandoned places too and often wonder what the stories would be if those walls could talk.

It's easy essdog, just start copying the great stuff you see around here

Beautiful. These show how much you care: taking the time to get the different angles & finding beauty on each side near and far. I appreciate these photographs. Thank you for sharing.
