This is the Craig House, it was used as a hospital for British Troops during the Revolutionary War. It’s located in Freehold New Jersey.
This is an 3 shot HDR ,converted to sepia followed with an added texture. I hope that this processing enhances the already old fashioned feel of the shot.
Refill your printer cartridges Mike, all the colour has drained out of you HDR shot, great history though.

Wow! This is outstanding. The composition is perfect as is the sepia. You really have to click for the larger view to realize a texture has been applied but I do think it is a fine touch.

I agree on the processing – it really works. Ditto on Julie’s comment about the composition – that was the frist thing I noticed with the perfect balance between the building and the tree but my favorite part is the rustic old fence.

I feel like I have stepped back in time…the sepia tones and texture really really adds to the antique feel of this!

I can but agree to what has already been said. It definitely looks old fashioned. Great shot.

This is very nice. Looks like it came from a revolutionary war museum. I agree with Karen – I love the fence. Those were much more common in those days.
