Description
This is an abandoned western Oklahoma homestead that has been taken over by the elements and neglect. Based on how the foundation was built (using Gypsum stones), I suspect this building was built around Oklahoma statehood and is probably easily 100 years old. The pipe and 50 gallon barrel in the forefront is a fresh water well that more than likely extends to the fresh water aquifer that runs under much of Oklahoma.Hope you enjoy!

Thanks!
The only filter I have is a UV filter...I just desaturated the colors and increased the contrast. My process is slightly more involved, but that is pretty much the summary of it. It's probably my favorite "look" I give to my pics.

oh okay, thanks for the info. I meant a photoshop filter, not a filter you put on your lenses there are filters that make a sepia effect and the same effect is possible in light blue. looks abit like it, that's why I asked but your way gives you more possibilities for editing

aww I see. Sorry for my misunderstanding. This is definitely my favorite effect to apply to photos! I somewhat stumbled on the "look" while trying to simulated the look of the colors and grit texture in the HBO series Band of Brothers. However, it doesn't always work with all photos...
