A Country Store out of a Horror Movie

Want to come "play here"?

Didn't think so.

And, no, that bent post is not barrel distortion. This place has seen better days.

Great HDR...

Nice, Mike. I'd pull the saturation back, but that's just my taste.

this one turned out well

Check out the "wheelchair" ramp in the front. Probably their failed attempt at meeting ADA requirements. That's an accident waiting to happen.

There are a ton of stores like this throughout the Southeast.

I think the accident waiting to happen is that brick wall on the right side! Or possibly the deranged axe murderer that is watching you.... :P

And the bars on the windows are not to keep people out but to keep people in!

great work on the shot. I too would have shot the entire building in the image.

I'm guessing it's more of a sucsessful attempt at helping out the beer guy.

Love the HDR BTW. How many exposures?

Great job as an HDR. Looks great!

One thing I would recommend is that you correct the bending of the post on the left which I'm guessing is due to barrel distortion. I had a nearly identical situation in a porch shot I took last year. You can easily straighten this out in PS under filter/distort/lens correction.
