Another old, decrepid, beat-up and derelict building..

[Jzero]

Here's another one of those old and picturesque buildings that once served as someone's home, or perhaps... as a home to someone's farm animals, whichever.

Hey, that is one cool b&w conversion!
And I really like that building, too!
Several years ago I had a little series up here on a dilapidated shed that I used to see from the road upon speeding past, and for which I then stopped to explore a little ... it has long gone from any of my photo servers, but I might consider reloading it for you. You might like it ?!?!?

And hey, I still owe you my edits of your other old-buildings-thread, and I did them yesterday ... must upload them and find that thread of yours to post them! :idea:

Thanks LaFoto, I have seen the edits and appreciate your efforts

Please do reload those old pictures..

Hey is that a conversion from color or was it shot in B&W. I like it a lot, the blacks are great and the contrast with the white of the bricks is really nice.

 

[Jzero]

Thanks Jlbrew. It is converted from color. Here's the original (tweaked somewhat as well) so you can get an idea of how much I played around with it on of those "Play-around-with-pictures" software.

Lovely image, B+W really does it justice =)
Like the lighting aswell, well done xD

 

[LaFoto]

Oh yes, now I am even more convinced that the black&white really "does it" here! Much, much stronger!
Cool "playing around" with your "play-around-with-your-pictures-software"!

it is certainly much better in B&W IMHO

simple and clean. i like it.

 

[Jzero]

Thank you all for your valuable input. I prefer the B&W version as well, somehow it seems to improve the general "feel" of the picture.

I agree with others in that B&W is better, I personally feel that this is so because the color version seems just a little too cluttered and busy for my taste. However, the black and white is very well done as others have keenly noted.
