No Trespassing

Photo by: Amanda S.
I took this picture when I was down in Orting with my family coming home from the pumpkin patch. I was in the process of taking pictures for my autumn assignment, but I thought this abandoned house was really interesting. I didn’t have to do too much editing; I just reduced the color and brightness to make it look even creepier.

Wow... this photo is amazing! I love it. There is not one thing that I don't like about it. I like how its almost to the point when its black and white but you can still see some color in the image. I also like how the sign is in focus but you can still see the house clearly. The creativity put into this is unique. It’s a beautiful picture. Awesome work.

I really like the old horror house feeling that this photo gives off. I really like that you chose to make the photo black and white. The sign adds a sense of mystery to the photo. Great job!

This picture is really eerie. I like how the color it reduced and not entirely black and white. I also like how the house it off in the background so that your eye is first drawn to the No Trespassing sign. Overall I love this creepy picture!!

I like how eerie this photo is. The contrast is nice and it is also enticing. Makes me think of a dream I had. :)

This definitely has an old photograph feeling to it in a strange way. It’s sort of like a dream, and I like the small add of green in the black and white photo. I love the fact that space isn’t wasted. I love it.

i love this picture. it looks kind of dark. i like how you got the private property sign in the front and the angle it was taken at. i also love how the picture is grey but the green from the grass stands out.

What I like about this photo is that it almost looks like its in Black and White, but you have some color to it and that makes it very unique. The lighting is great for this picture!
Good Job!

This is really cool. I like how everything is pretty much black and white besides a few hints of green. The green gives it a sort of eerie feeling which makes the picture even more creepy looking. Good job

I love the idea behind this photo so much. I’m a sucker for dilapidated architecture.
You did an amazing job incorporating a fore, middle, and background in the photo and making all three important to the overall picture.

The depth of field is also very effective here, drawing most of the attention to the sign as the main focal point, but not blurring the house too much.

This photo reflects a very somber mood with the subject matter and earthy tones.
