Abandoned House, near Clare
This abandoned house was found on the highway, just out of Clare (2 hours north of Adelaide), South Australia, Australia. I have changed it to sepia to add to the mood.
This was taken with a Canon DSLR EOS 350D camera.

Wow Elana, this is fantstic. I love the dramatic skyline and the whole treatment to this photo. Very well done.

Kerri Gallagher
This is fab Elana makes it seem even more isolated than the color version
Elana Bailey replied
Kerri, I think that you are right. Hence, probably why I prefer (and so do most peope it seems) the sepia version. Many thanks indeed.
PablosVista
Very effective Elana. The dramatic sky, the desolate ruin and your chioce of displaying it in sepia is a great combination.
Elana Bailey replied
Many thanks for viewing my work. It is much appreciated.
Andrew Leighton
Excellent work, the tones really add to the mood and make it look very bleak indeed. Well done :)

Very, very nice Elana, it has a desolate and abandoned mood to it with the sepia and clouds.
I think I took some shots of this place too when I was there…will have to go and check.
Elana Bailey replied
Jared, you probably did. Let me know if you post any, please. Scratch that, I have you on my watchlist, so I’ll be notified. Cheers very much.

This is a wonderful use of sepia. The barren dry countryside really compliments the sepia tones and the dusty cloud at the top really sets a mood.
Very nice indeed.
Elana Bailey replied
Cheers very much for viewing my work. It is much appreciated.

Peter Harpley
There is a novel you culd write based on images this picture creates in your mind. Tremendous composition and fabulous light. My novel will be called ‘Memories of childhood’. The first line being….
‘My throat was parched. The day had stretched as long as time would allow – I could see Grandpa’s tractor approaching…’
OK so I’m a photographer, not a writer…
Elana Bailey replied
Peter, you could indeed. It is an emotive shot which would provoke a story. Many thanks for stopping by. It is much appreciated.

Many thanks Harvey and also for adding this one to your favs.

Ben Little
Holy hell Elana…....... you favourited my work and in turn I took a glimpse at yours…... sstounding, with an “A”............. I love it. A girl close to my own…....... you feel whatever drew you to this compo. Maybe you should check my “Morgan’s Camp” image negating the lightning as a point of interest and drawing on the building as a source of impact…....... I love it….... balanced and true….. Ben :)
Elana Bailey replied
Ben, you have a wonderful way with words…lol…Many thanks indeed, Ben and also for adding this one to your favs. Cheers Elana.

Fine work Elana…....the building is well placed in the frame and serves to accentuate the isolation. The sepia works a treat.
