What catches me about this image is the windowless window shapes on the church/barn. The sepia tones allowed my eye to focus on the details which are just great! Love the old truck hidden in part by weeds of age. The textures are just right for this wonderful image... one that surely could hang on a wall! #9333962

Mitch Spence level-classic April 06, 2011

There's a combination of things here that gather for a powerful appeal for me, Nikki. Part of it is your framing and pov. Another part is the quality of tone and light. The gentle texture too is lovely. Nice package here. #9337700
