Found this abandoned house in Arizona while traveling with my son (Road Trip). We had a lot of fun and saw some amazing places. I applied texture (photo of my living room wall) to the print and added an image of the sun, taken on a cloudy day. This was my first attempt at creating a grunge photo.
It was mentioned that this picture might be better without the tree in front of the house, so I added another version from a different angle. I still prefer the lower version, but art is in the eye of the beholder. I'm using the term "art" loosely. Thanks for the visit...come again.
I started this blog to inspire and to be inspired by contact with other photographers whether beginners or professional. I welcome tips, constructive criticism and hope to have open dialog that is beneficial to all.

On Old Rt. 66
This view is from Rt. 66, north of Oatman, Arizona.The image was created using four separate shots stitched together in Photoshop. To take the shot correctly, use a tripod to keep the camera level. Using manual focus and exposures will help to ensure a seamless merge. This is a beautiful part of the country and I hope to get back soon.
