Abandoned Depot

[Greg McCary]

Does the antenna go or stay? I kind of like it.

I'd have to say "go." Mostly because it's leaning. Otherwise, I like the composition. Not sure if you used a polarizer, but that might have helped darken the blue in the sky. The foreground could use a little more contrast too, but I'm not on a reliable monitor right now, so don't put too much weight in that comment.

Looks good greg, not as good as my sunset but good. LOL

Can you darken the sky any?

Ditch the antenna!

[mn shutterbug]

The antenna doesn't go with the rest of the photo. Cut it down.

[Frog]

If you like it, that's what counts.

[Greg McCary]

Here's the edit with it cut down.With a little crop too.

[KenB]

Rather than cut the antenna out... how does the shot look from the other direction?

[Greg McCary]

The other direction the track crosses a road and the angle wouldn't be as strong.

[Frog]

I still like it there but maybe if only the antenna was gone and the pole stayed?

[Mr Yuck]

I like the new crop, and the missing pole is a plus as well, and you probably know what I would have done in addition :lol:

excellent composition and subject.

I prefer the one without the antenna. I think the antenna was a bit too long. But I think the 2nd one is a bit too contrasty.

I tried an HDR but for some reason the results were not good. But it was my intention all along. That's one reason I didn't use a polarizer. I guess I learn another lesson.

Great shot, but I love old structures.
I would agree with Frog, the pole would go with the photo
but the antenna needed to go.
Both look good.

Good shot... I like the version you posted on NEF best... I would rather have the pole and antenna... and in B&W... the antenna is part of the shot... and seeing a depot used or unused without it kinda throws up a sign for me... but then again I see depots all the time so I am used to seeing them there...
