The download is nice--interesting processing.
Thanks. I took one of my color photos, and to try something, I converted it to b/w.
The results didn't satisfy me so I overlayed the b/w with the original and kept reducing the opacity of the color photo till I got the look I liked.
Just wanted to try something a bit different.
I did some b/w darkroom work in the hobby photo shop when I was in the Army. Had lots of photos of my infant first daughter. Lost all those, and more, when a hurricane demolished my house years later.
(Did I share that history before?)

Great picture. Is it haunted?
Don't know. Too scared to go in! :-)
As I was leaving the site in the woods and off the main road, I was confronted by a guy who asked what I was doing there. He had seen my car parked by the main road, several yards away. I explained it was for a photo, and he said it was ok. House belonged to his departed grandparents

I live in Alabama also and have shot this same house . Be sure and go across the road and shoot the old church bus and a couple of other old buildings . Watch out for snakes this time of the year .
If you weren't just south of Dadeville, AL, it wasn't the same house.

Lots out there, especially in remote and rural areas. I found both abandoned houses and barns not far from I live. (Also found reputedly abandoned slave cabins, but won't post any those.)

Slave cabins are history like many other items of the past . Right or wrong its history and we should be exposed to it . Lets not white wash the past .

Thanks! The lake is the first subject I see in the a.m. No surprise I've LOTS of lake shots.
We travel more than a couple times a year and that mostly makes the balance of my photos posted.
