Old college dormitory, Winfield, KS.
What a shame to see what must have been a beautiful building now going to ruin.
Is this an HDR?
Yes, it's an HDR, a lot more aggressively so than I normally like. It seemed right for this one.
What a beautiful building that was!
Can it be restored....Maybe by a Howard Hughes type?
I don't know but it is overly pale on my monitor screen. So I adjusted the colors and contrast.
Tell me if this one looks better or worse.

A very good job Mario, although I prefer the mood in the original. As a matter of fact I'd like to see
this one in B/W.
Great job Barbarian :thumbsup:

Hey, now that's what I'm talkin' about. I like this, (still like the original better) :) This shot has
alot of possibilities. I mean you could just do a lot with it that would be pleasing I think.
Ain't potografy funn?? :D
Beautiful building. I feel the same as Jeanne about old buildings. This must of been so magnificent in it's day!
I really like the first one. Almost has a "fairy tale" look about it.
Thanks Barbarian!
Barbarian, I've also wondered about the curve in the building. I know this is caused by zooming in, etc. but is there a possibility of straightening it in PS? Or do you like to see it this way?
I have a few like that and wonder if I should straighten the walls or leave them.
I deliberately swiveled the camera to stuff all of it into the picture. Trying to unbend the picture was tough and not very effective. The quality isn't so good, since I used a small version of the picture. I used the Curve Bend filter in GIMP, so there might be better ways. I never tried one like this before.
