Back to a bit of urbex today. After processing my shot for Game 11 of HDR Tennis over on Facebook, I got a serious hankering to process some more gritty urbex. So, I trolled my images from California and found this shot of a fan in a small room in the abandoned diner I found. There wasn’t much room to get in close to it, so I decided on a wide framing that included a large portion of the door as a foreground element. I used FocalPoint in post processing to add the blur which helps draw your eye to the fan.
Great job with the framing. FP really draws the eye. Well done dude.
Gritty! I like!
Nice – definitely a gritty urbex scene, that far wall is nasty! Like the subtle FP too.
Way to rock FocalPoint, dude. Very subtle application, yet it does wonders for drawing the eye to the desired location. This place looks delicious for UrbEx.
I’m digging the comp on this. I do like how the texture on the wood to the left is still somewhat visible, yet obscure enough to not detract from the point of interest. Nicely done!
Excellent! Bummed I missed out on the HDR Tennis brackets, got busy and forgetful the last week or two.
Nice shot. Love the feel.
NIce and gritty. Great use of FocalPoint.
Eye went right to the fan! Bingo Bango Bongo!
I’m a FAN of this image…. get it? GET IT?
Perfect DOF in this one. leads you in.
Love the cool tones of the wall leading the eye to warm tones in the room. Very compelling!
I love the focal point… I’m really drawn into the room directly toward it. Great shot!
Nice work and great photo Heath, Urbex is always great with HDR, well done. Jim
Nice shot, Heath. Love the DoF here!
Love the moody brown/gold tones of the walls contrasting with the cool blues of the door and fan. Gloomy at its best!
Great work with the focus on this shot…my eyes were drawn immediately to the fan.
Love the depth of field in this image Heath! Wonderful job!
Loving that focus. Great shot bud.
I’m a huge fan of your work, Heath!! LOL Love this shot my friend, what drama!!
Sweet shot – like the leading OOF lines to the in focus fan – cool image!
