I love this Claudia it has a real haunted house feel to it! #2520529Claudia Kuhn March 11, 2006
Thanks for your comments! The afternoon I got this shot in the fall, the dark clouds were all around, but then the sun broke out on the mansion. It was very dramatic. Here's the color version. I like both. #2520547Lorraine A. Cook March 11, 2006
Looks like a thunderstorm was about to open on you and your camera. This is so striking. I love the moodiness of this setting, Claudia!<:)) #2520551Jim Huffield March 11, 2006

I really like the black and white here, Claudia :o)!!!! It kind of looks like "the spooky mansion on the hill" with the dark clouds and tree. Cool capture!!! #2521634Milan Banik March 11, 2006

Wonderful mood in this! The color version is also very beautiful and have some more detail! #2521957Nadya Johnson March 11, 2006
Striking photo, Claudia! Although in many ways color is my passion, I also love black and white. Sometimes it's the way to go and I think in this image, it really does work well! Once upon a time, I was at gallery where they had an Ansel Adams showing and I heard a fellow say, "I wouldn't give you a dollar for these photos. I could take these myself. What's the big deal, anyway? They're only black and white!" HA. Now of course, we can change a colored photo to a b&W with the aid of the computer: but the principle's the same. The photo has to be of even BETTER quality, to shine in black and white. And, as I recently discovered, there are so many pallettes, so many subtle variations of tone from which to choose even in b&w. This one does shine, and I think it's great! And color wouldn't have the mood of this. #2522674Jill Odice March 11, 2006
Nadya made some valid points! I love this, I just got a Canon Rebel and a IR filter and cannot wait to try it out! This image is perfect for it! #2522691Renee Doyle March 12, 2006
Excellent treatment on this wonderful image Claudia!!! Stunning in b&w!!! Love the dramatic sky!Claudia Kuhn March 12, 2006
Thanks so much! Jill, this image was converted (obviously from seeing the color version) I have an IR action which helped me get the IR tones. #2523032Trisha Moe March 12, 2006
