I wanted to capture the OLD architecture of this caved-in farm house with a vintage-style edit that resembled a sketch or ye-old photograph. Processing was intended to emphasize the house, especially its basic geometry, the still standing front wall, windows and entryway, dual chimneys, and of course the missing roof. Contrast was boosted around the woodland and house. A blur effect, exposure increase, and reverse vignette was applied to better frame the subject while still providing enough detail of the field that led up to it. This was set on a midwestern farm in the middle of nowhere.

Settings: 55 mm, 1/320 s, f/8, ISO 100
