    It was once New.

    I still have the original (colored) shot, but feel that sepia works a bit better.

    This is a subject I'd like to go after a bit more, I've already decided on trying different times of day so the lighting isnt so harsh and calmer days so the water is better, but what else can I do? I have to keep the crop kind of tight because the surroundings are not pleasing to the eye. And distance is an issue because I have to stay on the trail and there's a "river" between me and the subject.

    I have a dilema, I like it and I don't

    The thinks I like are: tone, and grittyness, the waves

    Don't likes: Composition, I feel that I want to see more above and to the sides to give it context. I don't think this is telling me the story without your script.

    I like this crop a lot better than the other ones :). I like the repetition of the windows and how the picture leads you downward into the water. Though it does seem like the building is a little out of focus, maybe it was because of the harsh lighting. I don't know how much room you have to move around (or if someone's going to come out with a shot gun), but maybe even a different angle might bring it out more.
