Very carefully and beautifully shot image! Even the high light spots have details without being washed out. Your DDR skill is exquisite! #4644167

Thanks everyone a great deal! My first old structure effort, something I have wanted to shoot for years. Thanks for noticing Alex, many times people use a detail over blur effect on old structures, but in this case, retaining detail with very little effect was essential to retain the important aging elements. #4647251

My kind of scene Steven, beautifully captured and presented! I have been collecting images of old Australian barns and farm sheds for about 10 years now, many have dissapeared since I captured them. #4658306
