Past its prime

[immski]

This shot and others I have like it intrigue me so much. I love to think of what this place was like when it employed hundreds of workers and was bustling w/ activity. I was messing with the parameterson my 350D and thought this was a good subject for a B&W. I added a little contrast to the original settings on the camera but other than that it is straight up. tell me how you feel about this one on comp, lighting, etc. thanks enjoy:mrgreen:

Anything at all? Is it really that bad?

I like the general feel of it. Do you still have the original copy (before you added contrast)? I think a softer look would be better, but not quite sure...
