Default Abandoned home. 'WE MUST CHANGE'

I've seen and went into a lot of abandoned places in my time, but this one tops them all. It was just very eerie. Not like it was haunted(I don't believe in ghosts/supernatural) but the "we must change" spray paint was odd, it was behind a ton of trees on the side of an empty road, and I was alone. Hope ya enjoy them.

I kinda like the last one. I probably would not cut down the tom of the chimney [?] there.

Also that pic could get lighter and afterwards a bit more contrast perhaps. Actually, imo, it screams after HDR.

Didn't have any more room to get the whole shot as it was literally all woods surrounding the house, that's why the chimney was cropped. If I backed up any further I'd of been standing in poison ivy wearing shorts and a polo. I'll lighten it a bit and boost the contrast and see the results. My monitor is junk, on there it looked good, but it's probably not. I didn't use HDR and never meant for it look like one lol.

And I didn't say you did. Just suggested it would be interesting to make one. Don't see, what's so funny about that.

I thought you were suggesting that it was an HDR image when you said:

I know how many people dislike HDR on this forum that's why I laughed and said this image wasn't. My apologies for jumping to conclusions.

Warehouse is in West Deptford, New Jersey. BTW man was checking your work out on your Flickr, you got a ton of nice shots. Really like the mountain pictures.
