El Rancho Motel (Abandoned)

[MulesAFpilot]

The El Rancho Motel is an abandoned motel on the side of Highway 50 in Sedalia, Mo. Apparently it was a pretty nice place back in the day. Now I think homeless stay in the place from time to time.

You did an excellent job of making it look kinda creepy and sinister with that post processing. Well done!

HDR?

 

[MulesAFpilot]

Thanks everyone... yeah I did an HDR, and then I used the Nik B/W Conversion: Dynamic Contrast filter

I had been wanting to take photos of this place for a while. I had been waiting for some good clouds to roll in, and have some free time. Lucky for me, yesterday was just that day.:mrgreen:
