Rough Enough?

Thoughts welcome and appreciated:ear I'm all ears.

I knew, of course, that trees and plants had roots, stems, bark, branches and foliage that reached up toward the light. But I was coming to realize that the real magician was light itself.

    Gee John I don't know. I like the first one because it has that very spooky neglected look, certainly rough. Seems a bit flat to mene_nau.gif

    I do like the second one, the reflections in the windows (that are left) etc. etc.

    Both pictures say rough, to me, but I think I like the 2nd one better.

    I'm largely in agreement with Thusie. The first picture is a little flat, but I still like it. However, I don't think "rough" as much as I do "abandoned" (although the "Keep Out" sign in the first one helps get the idea across).

    Hi John,
    i actually prefer the first one, it was a little more eyecatching to me. the subject is great and the quality of it too! nice job catching a rough scene.
