Craig, is this HDR? seems a bit much. the rocks are so busy that I don't see the composition, just out of balance is my basic comment.
also funny that for an IR image, the plants don't take on that IR look.
regards, tom

Howdy Tom,

Well, let's see, no it isn't HDR

There really isn't any composition, I was going for the reflection of the sky in the Windows thus the title "Sky Window's"

as far as plants, the trees reflected in the windows probably took on the post processing.

Thanks for your thoughts though

Take care,

Craig

I'm wondering what this place is. The structure itself looks older, what with the rock framing. The doors and windows are modern, and the picnic bench and garbage can are as well.
You've captured 3 great window reflections.

Howdy T-Bone,

Thanks, it was a Museum of Sculpture right outside Jackson Hole WY. It was filled with wonderful sculptures of all the Animals in the area.

Take care,

Craig

The effect you achieved here is quite puzzling (a bit less so once I read your last comment): part of a house (a manor ?) that looks like something new built so that it looks derelict. The windows add to the ambient disorientation, they are obviously not in ruins, and reflect both what's inside (a stone wall) and what's outside (the sky). A door, closed on what is obviously an open structure. Neatly done, Craig.

Howdy Santiago,

Thanks, it turned out a little more wild than I had originally thought

It was a beautiful piece of architecture in a wonderfully remote setting, blending into the countryside.

Thanks again, Take care,

Craig

I like it Craig. I agree the stones stand out in bold relief, but the other features do it for me. It has a bit of the grunge look about it.
