 Same building from the first Abandoned Buildings challenge. Will probably be obvious, but oh well. I took those comments to heart, and also liberally dodged and burned my sky this time.

I love this building, which I found on a bike ride several years ago. I can imagine the people it must have held and the things it may have seen. My dream is to live in a renovated building similar to this. This one may be past saving, but maybe someday...

Darnit, I even did my research to make sure that dodging and burning was okay. I really thought it was (obviously, or I'd not have put it in my notes). Thanks to everyone who commented!

Oh I absolutely love the colors and contrast! Wow! The reflections in the water are so clear. Wonderful work! :)

In this shot I would have cropped the bottom almost up to the reflection of the house because the reflection stands out more than the house and IMHO the house should be your subject.

The sky looks dodged and burned to me, but then again I'm pretty inexperienced.

I ike the spectrum of muted colour in your photo. There's a riffle in the water so a breeze must have been blowing on that cool day. 7.
