Older is Better

Old Buildings
At least when it comes to buildings, I find old, weathered buildings much more compelling than newer ones. Old buildings represent less-hurried bygone days, and they have such marvelously rich “character.” In fact, as I see it, the more peeling and curled-up paint daring to fall off an old building, the better!
For today’s post, we’re back at Jones Grocery Store, with this tight shot of an upper-story window on one side of the store. I blogged about Jones Grocery on three previous occasions. If you missed any of those posts, you can check them out at the following links:
Please continue to the NEXT SECTION, where I’ve provided two variations of this scene. Of the three photos, I believe I like the shot above best. Let me know your pick!

Very cool. I like old stuff. Old buildings, bridges, barns and churches are especially interesting.
I like how you did the color and saturation with these photos. It makes them look unique and artistic.
Yes, there’s something about the old buildings and structures that sets them apart from their contemporaries. I’m afraid that more and more of them are slowly vanishing.
I had fun modifying these photos. Thanks!
