 The Byron, CA hot springs was a haven for the rich and famous in the late 1800's. It has been long abandoned. Quite the place to go in its heyday.

nice composition, this looks as if it was at one time a very prosperous house or hotel, a touch overexposed but it works here for this challenge...nice job

Composition: Think I'd be tempted to leave a little more space above the top of the trees, and sacrifice a little ground.
Technical: Nice focus. Really nice smooth noise-free sky.
Meets challenge: Yes
Overall impression: Nice shot. I'd have liked to see more of the building close up.

Would have liked a little more contrast. Is this shot in San Antonio?
