I can definitely relate to the image. I really love the tones here. Great b/w shot.
I was curious as what you would think about a crop to hide the pillars in the shot?

Thanks, Peter, Jim and Carol! This building was an old Masonic Lodge that was destroyed when Bay Springs Lake was created along the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway in north Mississippi. This area is now underwater. The photo was taken a short time before the area was flooded. The photographer in this photo and I tried to document some the homes and buildings that were to be destroyed. - Ken

Wonderful shot Ken! Great tonal balance and DR, including the tree outside! Boy, I remember when my limbs could actually bend like that too! (the photog, not the tree;-) )
