Deserted house, ghost town of 'Foxhow', Western District, Victoria.

This place was near the traffic sign image 'Waiting' I posted a week or two back. This one's not as strong as that IMO.

C&C welcome as always.

Love it i-Berg. The composition is spot on and the mono-colour is superbly understated.

A lovely image, well conceived and beautifully presented.
Best wishes,

SPOOKY or what? I think the treatment works extremely well.

Wasn't there a film called Children of the Corn

Lovely colour, especially the grass. Nice old shack too, love what you've done to the place I see you've got the OOF foreground again, I didn't mind it before but here I quite like it - adds a bit of spookiness in my eyes.

great shot.

cant fault it.

The OOF foreground is definitely a significant factor in giving it depth and I admit I don't normally like tinted monochrome pics ( i.e sepia ) but this one works 100%

This is a classy shot that would work as a poster print on anyone's wall. Love it!!

Wish I'd have taken it!
