Taken of some mill houses near an abandoned mill... I liked the shape of the mansard roofs and the similarity of style.

Very nice B&W, Marion. I particularly admire the fact that you have been able to retain visible detail at every point across the full tonal range, from white to deep black. I'd love to know what process you used for the B&W conversion ... was it via channel mixer?

I am usually in the same camp with singe about the wires. But I grew up in a small town like this and they are just unavoidable...I tried shooting the family church there and you just cannot get around them. They somewhat work for me in this because of the angle you chose. I would like to see them repeated down the street but some of them get lost in the far dark background. Maybe some PS dodging or brigtening of that area would bring them out more, rather than less, because they are there and it helps to make the shot. Note further that I regularly remove window air conditioners from images that I have done, but again, their repitition down the street also adds to the flavor of this image for me. Great stuff....ah home....better call Mom tomorrow and say hi!

Interesting perspective. I think a shallower dof and/or more dramatic tones may be interesting. The picture also leaves me wanting to know more about what is in front of the houses...

I like the angle on this and the repitition of the buildings. The power lines are distracting, though.
