An old country school that a friend has been working to restore. This was one wet and foggy morning and a little snow around too. Still has the bell to put back up and the inside to finish, but I'm sure he will get it done. Thought I'd share.

What a gorgeous shot and post work, Carol! The image is so well defined that it almost looks 3-D. Beautiful!

I think that this is a very beautiful image - Part in clear air and rest in fog. Also the tree looks lovely and so does the building.

Very well done Carol. I hope all the pupils are safely home in the warmth - it looks very cold !
I have put it on the list for tomorrows BWC so no need to pm me :)

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

Good job Carol. The old school house reminds me of my childhood at the old school I attended. We had pot bellied stoves for heat at that time, no indoor restrooms and dirt roads to get to the school.

Life's moments are sweet. I just want to capture all that I can of them.

Really nice work, Carol.

If I didn't know better.. I would swear that you took a page of out of philcUK's tutorial; "Sepia & Ageing Effects Tutorial"... and improved upon it.

All works well.. and then some.

Good good composition.. subject matter is more than well-suited to the treatment you applied.

+favs for me.

And..

But, of course.. thank you for sharing this one with us.

Take a bow (erhm.. curtsy?).. you deserve a curtain call for your creative efforts here.
