I figured a black & white picture of this scene or even color would reveal a very average and somewhat dull shot, lower 5's at best. So I decided to whack it up a bit and spark some emotion, good or bad. I seemed to have accomplished that result with this submission. =)
Thx for the comments! |

Though meeting the challenge, the toning & selective desaturation & re-toning don't work for me in this shot. Looks kind of like PS gone mad! (please don't take that personally - not meant to offend and apologize if it comes across that way)
A clean B&W conversion with a little more sharpness woud have helped. Still, meeting the challenge, I gave you a 4.

| Validated or not, the heavy violet tinge is disconcerting. Time of day? |

| I don't know if it's post processing or else, but I think it way too purple. |

For me the partial desaturation does not wotk here. It produce an image which seems to loose its balance. I find myseld constantly being drwn to the green grass, and not looking at the building.
This is a shame as you have obviously found a great subject for the challenge. |

| Sorry I dont like the color stuff that you did. Either make it all desaturated with purple color or leave it in color. The bright green of the grass pulls the eye. the purple is a receding color. |

| Nice photograph. I just find the purple cast a little off as to what I would expect to see in a natural setting for an abandoned building. The perspective also makes it appear to me that the building is tilting backward. Then again, that is what abandoned building can do. |

| Interesting shot. How did you manage this under the basic editing rules? |

| Interesting try with selective colors, but I don't think it does this photo justice. It would also have been helpful to tilt the picture so that the edge of the building was parallel to the edge of the print. Exposure looks a bit soft -- probably from resizing. Might want to experiment with the USM. |

| I personally don't care for the coloring in this shot, the green and purple seems odd to me. |

| A strange purple and green combination. You may have been better off choosing black and white on this one ;) |

| That purple tone doesn't seem to help this picture..maybe if the the green weren't there to compete..? Just a thought: maybe if the lavender were less saturated? |

| I like the concept, but I think the hue shift was a bit too extreme. It distracts from the overall feel of the image. |

| The desaturized colors don't work for me at all. The house looks purple on both of my monitors. If this had been submitted in natural colors, I think it would have done better. |

| Interesting. Would have had greater visual impact if it weren't purple. Also looks a bit out of focus. |
