vintage church

Really not sure about this - but was playing with the b&w book club high ISO - as high as I could get the camera (it was really dark) and then processed it with sepia and fuzzy border (not the vintage photo setting on GIMP). It's for for week 5 of the b&w bookclub - http://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/21304/bw-bc-week-5-feb-24-28

Sorry to dump and run, out last night in the live audience of Click on wearable technology and out tonight at Guides, so I'm going to be a useless follower.

Thank you so much for looking - you're all wonderful.
Awesome --- love the editing;)

The effect is great...I love using high ISO and composing the large circles of lights into a scene. Well done.

I like it - looks like you are shooting through fog.

i like it that it feels ghostly.....

Great effect. The shot is quite ageless

I like your processing and the scene. I find my eye focusing on the lights more than the street or the building. Not sure if that is what you were intending.

@egad that's why I wasn't happy with it - and I didn't have time to reprocess and lose the lights

For me it looks like something dramatic is going on around that bright light at he end of the road.

@shannejw yeah I understand that! :)

Think there is to much light which brings the eye on to them and also for me theit is to much noise in the dark areas. One of the problems I surpose using very high iso.

@esox one of the points of using the high ISO was to get the grain as part of the black and white bookclub challege. The shots I put up on Flickr I much preferred personally, but they didn't fit the criteria of the month's challenge.

Cool processing right here.

Good that you were pushing the boundaries and it's not like you were intending to print this out A3 size..... It works as an example and I like the ambience...

Great feeling to this, can't decide if it's modern and luminous or olde-worlde and candlelit!
