    When the Music Stops

    I went out last night wanting to find a nice sunset. Instead, I stumbled upon this old school house. I could not believe the building was open, but it was. Went in there, and found this piano and some other stuff. This is a different type of photography but I really enjoyed it ...what do you think?

    Wow... well done, indeed. The ceiling isn't straight (duh), but who cares. I actually like it better that way.

    I don't know what to say. This is really good.

    Curious as to how you post-processed.

    Old school house? It seems like that is a B&W heaven. I would like to see some B&W.

    I like the space after the door(on the left side of the photo).

    It's a HDR blended image with a dual filter (cool on top, warm on the bottom) applied after.

    There will be some BW coming, but not yet :-)

    Superb! The possibilities seem endless! Possible HDR spot?
    First thing I noticed was the tilt, but as Dray said, doesn’t matter. I like the PP, but the piano seems to lack something.
    Great shot!

    Don't convert this to b/w. It would lose so much.

    I'm not normally an HDR lover, but it really worked here. You have enough contrast to keep it real, and the colors are great. What a great find.

    The composition lack the drama of the B&W version,
    light look flatish , if that is a word maybe some burn & dodge ?
    will you shoot that place again ?

    Very nice. Looks like you found a little sunset inside a house. Lovely colour hues here. The open door and slight light shining through really ads to this also. Colours and textures, composition are all very good.
