After roaming the countryside searching for abandoned barns and homesteads, I came across this old house far, far, south of Wilbur, Washington. Wish the walls could talk. Ken

I really like your shot. It's tack-sharp, and I like the textures of the grass, the home, and the clouds. It occurred to me that it would look good in black and white, so I imported it into Silver Efex. I think that worked well, but I won't post it without your permission.

The B&W seems to fit the atmosphere.

Nicely done! I like Silver Efex Pro as well. It can really make a so-so color photo pop when converted. However, in this case, you loose the feeling and appearance of aged wood that can only be seen in color. Plus, the yellow algae on the roof stringers is not recognizable for what it is. But, be that as it may, you did a nice job of maintaining a wide range of tones and the feeling of a long lost time. Thank you for your efforts. Ken

Nice composition, nicely rendered with lots of detail in the old house. Like you, I think you need the extra information in the colour version to get the "feel" of this one. Please stay well and keep on posting the great work.

Nice shot, love these old places. Years ago I took film shots of some of the old log settler homes that were decaying in the township. I am glad I did as they are all long gone now. Nice to look back on and see the history.

Nice find, Ken. The composition couldn’t be better, I think.
