This sets on a piece of property that me and the wife looked at to buy. But once we found out that it had been zoned for commercial, the price tag had gone up. I drive by the place everyday and its sad for me because one day this will not be there anymore. It was once something grand for someone when built, but now at least I have a image of it and it will not be forgotten.

The deep sepia obsures the details that are available in this image. By lightening the tone, the detail will emerge and the veiwer doesn't need to work to capture the feel, mood, emotion that should come easily. Heavy sharping, as has been done here, can not replace natural details that are not there or are lost. (By the way, IMO)
Great composition. Excellent focus. Building is abandoned. I just find the overall red cast a little strong. Could be lightened a little. IMO only. Nice photograph.
Wow. Are you SURE this one is abandoned? Hehehe. I like this. Too bad the sky was overcast. I think it could have been more dramatic with a nice blue sky.
