Ravages of Time ( Another image added)

Ruins of one of the buildings at the American Eagles Gold Mining Exhibition and Overlook outside Victor, Colorado. The mine sits approx. 10,750 ft above sea level and overlooks the current Cripple Creek-Victor Gold Mine operation as well as the old Cripple Creek Gold Mining District ruins. Image taken last Sept 26th.

I like the perspective (window frame through the door) and the b&w toning you used here.

John's review hit the main points very well. You have a pleasing composition and the window in the door really does well at guiding the viewer back into the image. The conversion to B&W appears to be a good choice. To me, this image needs to be part of a set, so show us some more.

Very creative image and title. The compostion really draws you into the image. Has a 3-D quality to it.

The toning works extremely well here. Nice work.

I recognized this photo immediately. Two years ago my wife and I stood inside that window and had my camera mounted outside. We took a self portrait and told everyone this was our new home!!! Did you also get some pictures of the old machinery? I agree with Steven..if you have some more pictures, it would make a great set.

I lke it!

Thanks everyone. This is the only other image that's semi-worthy of posting. Jack, to answer your question, I do have some shots of the machinery that I took in July. I wasn't happy with my original processing so I'm redoing them. Not sure if I like this processing or not. Hmmm . . . Looks a bit skewed.

Really like the sepia look and the detail in building.
