I pass this old house almost every day and feel drawn to it in some way. I wonder about its past and future. I feel sad this once proud home is now abandon and in decay.

Love this photo, the clouds draw your eye to the house, and the trees on either side also draw your eyes in. It is like magnet- your eyes zoom in on the old house. Great shot.

Erik Kolstad said (20 May 2009):
Good stuff, but the composition is strong enough without the extra pop you get from HDR. Sometimes it's a bit too much. Would perhaps have been nice to see in high-contrast B&W instead.

Bobby Samuels said (9 Jun 2009):
Nice piece of photographic artistry. It's a good thing that you took the time out to shoot it when you did. It's places, people, or things like this that we as photographers/artists take for granted. We think that it will last forever until the day that we go to shoot it and it's gone.
Once again, nicely done. Beautiful color, angle, and contrast. -
