Derelict Depot

I am finding it challenging to shoot landscapes in black and white without some other visible features to create more interest.

[Daryl O'Hare]

Wow. It is quite overgrown there!

[Esther Rosenberg]

me too, this is a great shot tho. Lots of trees and vegetation round the home.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Lots of landscapes have buildings in them. No problem there! This poor house has not been visited in a while! But all that overgrowth lends texture to the picture. Good catch!

[Ellen Bogenschutz]

I wonder if you could up the contrast on this, and then the white bark trees would stand out and mimic the pillars on the building. The light grasses in the foreground may have more to say also.

[Lin]

Really like the comp on this one.

[Shutterbug]

Love all the textures. Next week we have trinkets.

[Nicole Campbell]

I think you have done very well. Showing only part of the building has created great interest and tells a story.

[moni kozi]

Whoa!

[JackieR]

Love all the verticals textures and tones ( I think this year tag is for2021?)

[Gillian]

Black and white is very challenging. I think you've handled it well here, bringing out the tones and shades.

[Diana]

This looks fabulous Katy, well done. I don't even attempt it :)

[Terri]

I like the derelict depot in the shot. It does seem somewhat creepy and eerie.

[Geertje K.]

I know what you mean. But this looks very interesting in a whole.

@theredcamera a great suggestipon and I did just that . Tell me what you think of it https://365project.org/grammyn/everything-else/2021-02-06
@linnypinny I am so glad you do! I struggled with it a bit since it is the middle of town but didn't want it to appear that way
@shutterbug49 Thanks Debbie! I am hoping that will be easier!

@kwiksilver thank you Gillian. I changed it a bit. tell me what you think https://365project.org/grammyn/everything-else/2021-02-06
@ludwigsdiana Thank ou Diana I don't blame you a bit as you have so many beautiful colorful landscapes where you are!
@madamelucyThanks Terri. If it were on the outskirts of town instead of in the middle it might be a bit creepier than it actually is!
@geertje Thank you Geerthe. I appreciate it so much!

[Kathy]

I could have sworn I had commented on this yesterday. I like the wildness of this scene.
