Rent a Ruin

North Attleboro, Massachusetts

I had brunch with a new Meetup Group in North Attleboro today, and on my way there I noticed this ruined building sporting the "No Trespassing" and "For Rent" signs just begging to be photographed. The worn sign hanging off the front of the building reads "ABC Vacuums." I don't remember the business, but from the looks of the building - and the sign - I'd guess it hasn't been in business for a few decades.

Post processing started with a neutral filter in Topaz B&W FX. I adjusted color sensitivity sliders, adaptive exposure, regions, contrast, boost black, boost white, and protect highlights. A levels adjustment was added in PSE.

Here's the high res version in Smugmug: http://kannafoot.smugmug.com/Photo-Challenges/PAD2014/i-j7P3X7c/0/XL/2014%2008%2031_0004%20copy-XL.jpg
This really does make for such a great photo Ron! I think so many places just beg for you to take their photos, you always manage to do them justice!
