Here's a photo of what used to be the only building I ever saw in Clodine, TX. This served as the official post office/grocery store. But, as you can see...it has fallen to ruin, and may not still be there........I haven't been down that road, since it was widened. The building did have character!

I like this. Were I there, I would feel a lot more comfortable about walking up them steps if there was a big "NO SMOKING" sign on the porch.

I like the color in this because it is immediately clear it is about Mega Fireworks. One thing I'd suggest thinking about is the vertical alignment of the building lines and the street. I think that could be improved using Transform in PS, and I am not sure that the way it is now contributes to the impression. Maybe it does, I guess, in the sense it implies that this is a bit off-kilter and unsettling.

Interesting image.

Cool building and great treatment of it. The light vignetting and the selective desaturation present well. The image seems to be tilted slight CW. Intentional? Real nicely done.

Neat shot and I like the way you've processed and framed it. I agree it seems to need some CCW rotation.
