Interesting take, but I wish the house wasn't so close to dead center. Cropping some off the right/bottom (to put the house in the rule of 3rds position, and get rid of the orange glow) would have made it more appealing to me.
Moon and sky are cool, I can't make out the orange light on the right. If i was to use headlights for lighting I think i would have got closer and put my shadow on the house maybe to look ominous, or got between the lights of the car , lean on the hood.
The lighting on the house and on the ground around the house adds interest, it almost looks like car lights shining on the house. I thinks leaving the bright lights in the shot on the rigth are a bit distracting though, not sure how it would look with them cropped out. Overall I like it, it kinda has an spooky horror house look to it.
a crop to the right to eliminate the lights would strengthen this image. A little too much use of car headlights to light up structure but probably only way to go without trespassing. 7 for effort.
Wow! O.O’ Great job! Is that a fire off on the right? I love the contrast you created by having the moon on the left and a bright light (sort of like the sun) on the left. The reds and the blues...wow! :] The stars add a cool touch and the house looks amazing! Exceptional picture! Maybe next time try to not add so much distracting ground in front of the house.
I think this would have been alot better if the house wasn't in the center (rule of thirds) and if you would have closed the apature a bit more to get a sharper focus and less DOF.
Terrific potential with this shot, but I'm not sure it's capitalised on it totally. The central composition is a bit disinteresting and the overall feel a bit soft. Love the idea of the lighting though.
Ravenshoe and Warden ... I shot the same house. I shot it from the other side also at nite.
What a classic ruin. It is my new favorite place. I actually tried the same lighting. I wish you could have cropped out the lites from the factory left. This is a good image otherwise. Good luck
