This is the black and white of the color shot from a couple of days ago. I am not sure which one I like better.

Excellent and moody shot, Elaine - you've really given this one a rather creepy feel with your processing techniques. Well done!

I think this is the best shot to date of the old building. I love that sombre processing - the sky looks really good.

I like that dark one, a processing that fits so well with the mood, dramatic feel.

Having looked at all three I like this best, terrific image. As Jason says I can imagine local children daring each other to go near!

My preference is the first one Elaine! This shot has a much darker and somber feel to it; almost as if the house had given up all hope and surrendered to it's fate! ;-)

@Eric Cousineau: Hi Eric, Thanks! I am still not sure. I go back and forth between the two!

Jaytee from Fresno, California, United States

Extraordinary. This one seems to be the most moody out of the three, I personally liked the second one the most. Great work Elaine.

Love the imploding horror of the scene, the dying vines clinging to the house that must
have been so beautiful at one time. Still a haunting ruin ! I love both of the two, the grisly
monotone and the colour, each providing a change in emotions and feelings !~

This one!
This has soul and mood and tension.
The colour one has........err.......colour and texture.
You know what I mean Elaine.

A very ominous view of this building with that sky! Great PoV as well.
