brokedown palace

Im Going to leave this brokedown palace,
On my hands and my knees, I will roll, roll, roll.
Make myself a bed by the waterside,
In my time,in my time, I will roll, roll, roll.

This is an amazing photo! I'm first drawn to the sky that has light coming in from the left, but is eerily dark on the right. The house is sad and so abandoned. Makes me wonder about who lived there and why they left. Great shot!

this is great stuff, it's so surreal! Looks like it could fall down at any second!

The clouds make the photo surreal. It's hard to tell where the house ends and the sky begins - that's part of the magic of this picture I think. Nice job

Intersting, what type of filter or film did you use!? It has an awsome effect.

This makes me think of Magritte. Surrealist painter. It's amazing how you can't tell where the clouds begin and end...as though the house were evaporating. Really suggestive photo.

Great! The shot does kind of creep me out. Strait out of a horror movie like "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" or something. The sky sets this shot apart.

I absolutely love the spooky atmosphere you created, although I'm sure it looks pretty spooky anyway. Great shot!

Really makes you want to know what happened in this house and why it's abandoned. The short story "All Through the House" comes to mind. Great b&w and awesome sky.
