Please Keep Back

Small town USA is still stuck in the recession in many ways. I saw a

little hope in Winslow, AZ....a little. Comments Appreciated

This house has a story!

No need at all for this sign inside the door. The house is scary enough to discourage any intruder. Well done Paul!!!

Nicely done Paul, from the shadow casted by the gate to lead us in to the great textures in the structure and to top is off, a nice sky. Your toning is well done, great subject matter.

An absolutely superb composition with perfect contrasts, texture and shadows.

Excellent contrast, details and post work!

Thank you all for taking the time to comment.

the house has a human quality to it.. the house says one thing however the open gate  gives us another message

Truly Wizard of Oz. Love it.

Paul,

Just found this one. The house is not scary at all, just abandoned for some time with the eventual lack of maintenance and overgrown shrubs. The cedar shingles (or whatever) are still fairly consistent. The cloud patterns and the backlighting are good, the latter especially on the gate, but I think in your desire to increase the drama with contrast you have introduced in PS artefact lines between the roof and sky that spoils it for me.
