Nice image. I wonder if the two sets of doors were for men and women separately, like they are for many old churches in the south. Always seemed like an interesting concept without logical reason by our way of thinking today.

Thank you Doug. I have no idea on the original purpose of this building. While possible, I doubt it’s always been a church.

I don’t know Doug. Given the boating, canning and fishing industry’s there 60-70 years ago it could have been with one entrance for management, the other for employees, but there’s no obvious truck loading dock. It may have been the old transportation ferry terminal building and the two doors for arrivals and departures. 🤷🏼♂️
The compositions have great sheen to them Jack! The detail and texture really comes through here in all frames! Sepia softens the harsh light from a cloudless sky! Sepia gives the compositions a sense of nostalgia. An antique "sense" if you will.
Well done!

Thank you Dan, appreciate this feedback! I’m always a little leery of doing sepia, so tend to go lighter handed.
In C1 I can split the impact between highlights and shadows, and have found — at least for me and my tastes — that going a little lighter on the highlights than shadows somehow comes across more pleasing than a uniform toning. In this one, the highlights got about half the dose of the shadows, and at slightly different hues.

Jack, when applied with careful consideration, sepia can enhance details and textures in an image, creating a more subtle and refined look. You nailed that here!
