An Abandoned House in Midwood

Yesterday we had to drive out to Sheepshead Bay High School to score some swine flu vaccine (Karen is 9-months pregnant, so she needed it.) On the way out on Ocean Parkway, I noticed this boarded up house— I think the enormous tree in front caught my eye. On way back, we happened to pass the same corner, so I jumped out and grabbed the picture.

They should use that tree at Rockefeller Center next year!

You did manage to take archi shots with vertical lines, previously - this one falls back a little. Though the picture as a whole is very good.

you're right-- i forgot to correct the lens distortion. i've updated the image. if you're interested in a comparison, here is the original.

"Rich" was the first word to come to mind. Rich, with color, geometry, detail, etc. One of your best this year -- beauitful but still very intriguing.
