Went out to try my new tripod this morning, so I went to church, sort of. Any and all thoughts are welcome be they good or bad.

This was shot with a Canon 18-55 kit lens at 18MM F8 ISO 100. It's an HDR of 6 Photos with a range of -2,-1,0,0,+1,+2
It's an abandoned Chapel at a juvenile detention center. I think it was built in 1915 according to the plate on the wall.
I didn't want to go totally over the top with PP like most people do, Just wanted some semi-subtle changes

Evansgr, it appears to be a nice picture, but needs to be leveled just a tab because it looks like it is leaning to one side. This is just my humble opinion. :thumbup:

Tejas, I think your right. I'll rotate it a bit and repost.

I really like it. Forget all the criticism about not being level. It is built on sloping land. Look at the foundation and be impressed about how they could build a level chapel on unlevel land. There is no way to "level" the photo. If you want level land, you will have a sloping chapel.

Wow! I thought the original was a good picture, but this looks great. Again, just my humble opinion. I always love pictures of old places. :thumbup:

Lovely old building. Don't see stonework like that anymore. Nice shot. Your subtle use of HDR is excellent.

we aren't looking for level land we're looking for a level building. You can see just how far out of level the building is by this post. You can't crop the shot and still get all the subject in. Just trying to help. Yes Robbie7 I think he was serious. That aside it's a great piece of HDR in my opinion. Not over done as some are
