Description Nature takes over inside what had become my favorite 'set' for ambient natural lighting.

Wing's Barn has officially collapsed now. At the time of this shoot the barn had entire walls falling down and gaping holes in the roof .. light streamed in everywhere.. as did nature.. the nature of decay.

This is a cool shot John I am amazed at the colours you can pull from this.. Hope I'm not treading on toes here by asking for some secret tips but did you use any filters in this shot or modded on photoshop or done by HDR this is just perfect!

the HDRi process in photomatix allows color saturation ...

hey skinner, got a question for ya--how do you get the colors and hues so vibrant and soft like that? I want to be able to give my works the same sort of quality, it really makes them stand out

Bit cluttery, but I suppose it's part of this photo's appeal. Very colorful. Beautiful decay, indeed. hehe Who knew rot could be so darned wonderful? lol Wait. Am I the first to comment on any of your pieces?.. I ought to have this post bronzed. Unless, of course, 14 others have hit "Send" while I write this. Better finish it up quickly..
