Abandoned House, Karnak, Illinois

Not exactly St. Louis, this is near Heron Pond in the Shawnee National Forest.  I used the Direct Positive preset then reduced saturation by 15.  24mm at f/8.

Close enough to home base to claim for St. Louis. I love the layered textures and palette - you gave it just the right amount of punch. The sharpness and resolution are evident even in the JPG. Did you make it to the pond again?

Thanks - Yes we made it to the pond, and to my amazement the cypress trees had turned kind of a rust color and were dropping leaves. I guess i never realized they were deciduous. I didn't really get anything i liked that much but I'll try to post a pond pic tonight.
