Ahh, yes, Gayle. Old buildings are fun... and it's what I like most about the west, they are so plentiful.
This looks great in B&W, haunted looking if you ask me. I like the selctive area you used instead of a whole building shot.
Best to you,
Dave

This shot reminds me of all the ghost stories our father used to tell us before going to sleep, especially the ones about where he grew up in North Georgia, near Greshamville. When we finally got to go see the area,the house he spoke of was just like this one, near a "crik" and with Cherokee and Creek Indian arrowheads buried nearby.I remember feeling haunted inside as we entered the house which even though it was day seemed like your photo above,set in a pitch dark sky (perhaps the tall pines and great oaks that covered the place since it was surrounded by the Oconee National Forest with Indian Burial Mounds nearby)and lit only by moonlight. Your photo brings back all those haunted and mysterious times of our growing up storied with tales from our youth.
Bright Moments,
Dale

Hi Gayle
The only tip I could give is:
Look at images, get inspired. Inspire others!
This is just great to look at
Great handling of the geometry
and very poetic

First off - this shot has a great mood. The tree shadows on the house is what makes it IMO. The toning is interesting and I wonder what you did - it does not look like a straight duotone from a grayscale. Looking for ways to make it more apparent that it is the moon that is illuminating this house, maybe a little more blue would move it in that direction?

Gayle,
I really like the look of this, the pattern of light falling on it is what makes this image. My only quip is I would have like to seen more space around the top of the house but thats just a personal opinion. Very nice toning also..

Really nice capture and I like the fact that there is nothing distracting from the sky.
I too would like to know the camera settings. Keep up the nice shots!

Gayle, a wonderful and inspiring photo. I've read your bio, and although you *claim* not to be a professional, you most certainly are an artist. I'm no professional either, but in my humble opinion I think you've created a stunning photo. I would like to know (an estimate of -) the camera settings. They always tell alot about the what and why of a photo.
Looking at your photo, I think the sky is too dark and has no stars in it. I'm guessing this is a PS job? The lack of contrast in the sky as well as the heavy tone attracts the attention a bit too much. I took the liberty of trying to illustrate what I mean by using your photo. I took the sky of one of my photos and blended it over the black sky in yours. Hope you don't mind.....
Cheers,
Hugo

I LOVE this photo!
it really shows the idea of isolation, desolation and the stuff folklore is made of.
it evokes a sense of mystery and more than meeting the eye. I particularly think this was effective with the falling off boards.
How long was the exposure for this shot?

Dear Gayle
Excellent photo, in its lighting, composition and even the emotionaly...
But i have one question....is this a pure moonlight or was is edited or enhanced by computer....because for a moonlight its too heavy...even if it was a full moon, but in either ways excellent job keep up the good work
