This photo starts a little series I took a few days ago featuring a pretty sweet abandoned mansion that was built in the 1860s.
My girlfriend's boss told us last week about this place and I made the drive to go see it the 1st chance I could since it sounded pretty special... and it so was :)
I'll be returning to my new favorite place to shoot pretty often I think this year - it'll be fun to see how the seasons and times of the day will affect the mood of the photos.
This was shot just after noon on a pretty cold, windy and snowy day but I changed a ton of settings (especially the exposure and white balance) and used a polarizing filter to get the look I wanted.
