Save The Queen

The Queen theater opened around 1924 in Bryan, Texas. Now it's just another rundown building.

great image!

Thanks!

Nice work on this. I really like the comp

For a suggestion, it appears the you used a lot of noise reduction on the textured areas? It tends to smooth out the textures a lot. Great for the sky, but the pavement and concrete then looks a tad to smooth imo.

Yea, this is one of the first few I have done in HDR so I'm still learning. I think you're right, I may have gone a little overboard on the noise reduction.

Thanks for the CC!

No problem at all Keep up your efforts!!

Best,

Thanks! I just downloaded Photomatix...looks like a lot more options than Photoshop's HDR function had. Pretty intense!
