33 Apr 20 Reply Shot this on the drone during a snow storm March 13, this year. Apr 12th
33 Apr 20 Reply I played with it in B&W, also. For some reason, the conversion doesn't speak to me the same as the color version. Maybe I should go back and shoot it on B&W film, and then try to print a B&W image. I have never had good luck converting color captures to mono.

Maybe the issue is digital. My scans of B&W negs. suck, also. In the old days of chemical B&W I seem to have done better getting a print to invoke "feeling". Or, maybe it was just the chemicals killing brain cells. 		Apr 11th
33 Apr 20 Reply You are correct with regard to failing structural stability in old buildings. This one can be entered carefully, but not for much longer. The taggers, dopers, drinkers, and vandals are taking it down one act of destruction at a time.

Finding an old house, today, that has not been stripped and vandalized is nearly impossible. I have not seen one since the 1950's.

33 Apr 20 Reply I don't use Lightroom. This was all done in CS 5.1. Apr 9th
33 Apr 20 Comment Great shot. If there were a human down in the canyon, would the figure show up? Some kind of object for scale. Us who have never seen this place need a clue to the size of the scene. Is that one mile of river, or 6? Apr 7th
33 Apr 20 Comment The human makes the shot. I wouldn't change anything, except to put his down sized echo on the step of the first rock formation.

33 Apr 20 Comment Nice shots. I think I would want to darken the sky just slightly. Apr 7th
33 Apr 20 Comment Looks like that Pine Tree has had a few bouts with the wind. We have a windy environment, also. Every winter a few more Pine Trees get blown over.

The mountains are a bit blue to me. Maybe slide the cyan and blue saturation a bit and see if it makes any difference; or what would happen if you dodge it?		 Apr 7th
33 Apr 20 Reply Thank you, sir. That is actually a collapsed shed, probably a poultry house. The property has about 8 "outbuildings". 6 1/2 are flat on the ground. Apr 4th

85 Apr 20 Reply A little closer to what you're seeking. Apr 4th
85 Apr 20 Comment I like the shot's perspective. Maybe a little more contrast or saturation in the ice and grey mud in the foreground. Apr 3rd
85 Apr 20 Comment Spiritually, this shot leaves me flat. It stirs no feelings. Maybe crop off the top 25% and pull down the brightness.
