Abandoned Outhouse

My brother-in-law and I drove around yesterday looking for abandoned structures to take pictures of.  We came across this old church that was built in 1898.  It’s still in use but does not having running water and still had outhouses.

The sun was beginning to go down and I was trying to capture it in the picture.  This can be a challenge because it will often causes everything in the foreground to be extremely dark.  I decreased the shutter to 1/750 of a second, hoping to increase the detail in my foreground but also catch a glare from the sun.  This doesn’t always look good but I think it worked well in this picture.

ISO 160 f1.4 1/750 50mm

    1. Thanks for your comments. I played with it in B&W but really like the yellow from the sun, the red from the lens glare, and the browns in the background.
