Description

One more shot from my trip to ~picturenoise's hometown. I chose the title Into the past because this house gives me a certain time travel feeling... Hard to explain.

What do you think about the HDR processing? Are the local contrasts too high? Colorwise I made the picture heavy on warm tones and reduced the saturation of the greens and blues. Any thoughts on that?

Impact

Firstly I saw this picture while browsing some photos and this picture just jumped out and said 'Look at Me'.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who get's this feeling!

I don't know too much about photography apart from the fact that I'm picky and know what I like.

So let me begin: The colours are perfect, the dark ominous sky with a slight warming orange of the house blends for a nice mix of colour within the picture. Not to soft, not to harsh.

The lighting is good with no dark shadowy corners etc.

Everything from the trees to the leaves on the ground blend well and the colours help bring out the details. It verges on the edge of surreal yet just manages to stay within reality.

Finally the title of the piece is perfect with the orange of the buildings adding to the age and giving it the whole old age look.

So to end, a great photo with great visual impact. Congratulations. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/p/p…" width="15" height="16" alt="
