Lumineux, 6 months ago

While you celebrate I am nursing a New Year Day hangover…Groan…and yet I’m still here! Lol
This image has such a great atmosphere, surreal and very, ‘another place and time’. Birg, you never fail to amaze me, you always seem to know exactly what treatment to apply to enhance your images perfectly.

coffeebean, 6 months ago

Really lovely colous in this beautiful shot, I love this it has such warmth

Birgitta, 6 months ago

Marion, the treatment I’m going to apply tonight is 4 aspirin, so I don’t
end up like you tomorrow.. ;) You’ve got a hangover & STILL you stop by?!
My goodness…thank you! I used CS3 & Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo XI and
about 13 layers to do this. (multiply/smart sharpening + luminosity/overlay//HDR..
a little bit of everything.) I don’t have a “set technique” so I never remember exactly
how I do it. Thanks again, and you too Rhys!!

Birgitta, 6 months ago

Thank you Coffeebean. :)

awesome work ! well done…

Kenneth Fugate, 5 months ago

nice shot

Jillian Shell..., 5 months ago

This is just goreous!! Beautiful and mysterious. I have a facination with doors and windows in photography. They are the portals of life. This, I feel a sense of reaching a destination finally, at the end of a cold and brutal season-perhaps at the end of the fall?-to finally reach an enlightened state after a long-faught struggle. The “woodiness” is lovely because it is both alive and old and even dead…and yet the door symbolizes a newness, fresh, crisp, clean and alive. I like that the door is actually open, showing that it is inviting the audience in and up to something newer and better than the old leaves that you will leave behind once you pass through the doorway.

Thank you for this beautiful image. Please look at my art and writing when you have time and give me a comment. Thanks!!

Marianna Patra..., 5 months ago

Vistabreeze, 4 months ago

Wonderful find! It’s such mystery walking into the “abandoned”... There’s always something down the road or maybe just next door that beckons one to enter. Great shot!

nikirios, 4 months ago

brilliant you are with your awesome lighting!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bradley Hartman, 3 months ago

The elegance would always be,
For anyone who wanted to see,
Who could hear its silent plea.

The better days are now gone,
Neglected for far too long,
Nature creeping back where it once belonged,
Somehow beautiful and wrong.

I love this picture, the way the tones show both the majesty that was once there and the reclaiming of what once was. The tones are warm and earthy which gives it a sad feeling of better times. Great work

Jason Ray France, 3 months ago
