Old House by olivetreeann

Old House

A filler from back in April. Jeff and I had taken a drive through Worthington State Park and found this old house clinging to life. We found the windows particularly interesting. I don't know if they're like this in order to be boarded up, or if they were like that to begin with. No matter what the reason, they look quite strange. Added the old-style photo processing to the black and white shot to really drive home the state of deterioration it's in.
Odd to me it looks like a puzzle house! Cool photo!

Nice shot. I agree about the windows--they look almost prison-like. I like your processing.

Cool capture and processing, Ann. That building seems to be crumbling down.

@digitalrn Thanks Rick! I don't know how long it's been like this, but it's fighting for all its life!
@sangwann Thanks Dione! Yes, and there were a couple sheds next to it that had already crumbled. It's not long for this world as they say.
@cimes1 Thanks Carole. All these old buildings really do look great in b/w or sepia. I think those formats bring out the texture and decay better than color.

What a powerful image. You chose just the right processing.

@allie912 Thanks Allison. Yes, I felt it added to the distressed look quite nicely!

Excellent shot! It looks like it should have a "condemned" sign or something.

@prttblues haha- it did have a Keep Out sign stuck on the front.
