OCOLOY Day 15: You can change your point of view...

...but what is, is! Yesterday's ruined farm viewed from a different angle.

This image is SOOC and is part of my ongoing OCOLOY project - you can read more about it in my post for 1 January and in my profile.

View on black for maximum impact.

It sure looks like you live in a neat area! So pretty!

[Barbara Webb]

Beautiful from this side too!

[Debs Stott]

The shapes are more pronounced from this angle, but I prefer yesterday's view with all the ivy and so on.

[Margo Sayer]

You've captured the bleakness effectively. Like the contrast between the sky and the buildings and so much texture.

[April]

I like the contrasts and pov of this one.

[john morley]

Very much my type of place, when I find a ruin my mind starts to imagine all sorts of scenarios as I'm clicking away. I like the view you got here..

[Nadia_mt]

Love the B&W

[Francoise]

I'm noticing the long shadows in the grass

[Merrelyn]

Great image, I prefer this angle.

[Joan Robillard]

Wonderful way to show that most subjects can be photographed from different angels.

[Jasper]

This works very well. Like the clean lines on the roof, the trees against the clouds and the rich, dark portion of sky - red filter?

[Sebastian Gritt]

Love the 'framing', composition and those 2 trees. Fav.

[DbJ]

The framing of the deteriorating portion is very well thought

[gloria jones]

Great lighting, composition, textures

[Shari]

A great SOOC. I'm enjoying what you can do OCOLOY.

[Kathy]

Looks like something from an old movie.

[maree_sanderson]

great comp

@jasperc I'm a bit late in replying to your question - sorry - but yes, I have the X100T set to BWR most of the time although I think the filter effect is fairly subtle. I must find time, sooner rather than later, to set up a test subject with a range of tones and then go through the whole gamut of exposure options to get a better feel for the effects of each setting. Have you done this with your X100S?

[Jasper]

@vignouse thanks. No I haven't done this yet but it's a very good idea. Like you I'm gravitating towards the red filter most of the time for that little bit of extra contrast and interest in skies.

[Larry L]

I like this view a little bit more. But both are great.
