Homestead in sepia
It might be the color, but this rendering strikes me more as an abandoned dwelling…maybe it’s because the mountains and trees that were visible in the other versions are missing and there is a feeling of derelict solitude here…I’m not sure…. This is the fourth of five images in the Homestead series…to see the other photographs, you can scroll to the bottom of the page and click on Homestead Series under the Categories icon.
Scott's Place...Images and Words 
I do like this the best. The color and tone fit the subject.

Seemingly a simple image…… but a stunning one. The composition and detail make this a classic. Your camera optics and its rendering of graduated tone are both first rate…….a gorgeous warm sepia. Great series Scott.

I think this is my favourite in the series Scott. The processing is spot on, the composition is great.

Thank you, Adrian…I don’t usually favor the sepia finish on my own images, but I was rather pleased the way this one turned-out.

I like that, Andy…timeless…thank you.

Very nice, Scott. One of the few times I think monochrome really works or enhances the shot.

Thank you, thank you, Gunta…I do like this one, but I think I prefer the black and white version….

It fits. Looks like it might have been taken in the dustbowl 30s.

It does have that feel to it, Allen.

I love the story that this tells. One can only wonder what stories those walls could tell.
