Hi folks,

I took this picture back in 2011 with an XSi and 18-55mm IS lens and re-processed it tonight in SNS-HDR. I would appreciate any feedback whether positive or constructive.

Thanks in advance...
Al

The tones in it look pretty good. Wish that the building wasn't distorted though.

Very nice framing, sky and exposure/processing. I agree you could straighten it some but the weeds in the foreground is the biggest negative for me.

I like this, Al. The exposure and contrast look pretty well controlled, though the sky might be pushed a little too rich for my taste. I happen to like the 'distortion' in the structure--I think that helps push a more informal, back woods feel to the building.

I also find the weed portion to detract a little but from the shot. I think rather than include them fully in the shot, I'd have at least attempted to push in a little and create some OOF foreground with some of it. It might have been a little too dense for that however; and perhaps you would have been so close that the distortion would have been pushed too far.
