Under Lock & Key

You ever have one of those shots where you are not sure where to begin the “style post processing part”? For me this is one of those images.

 

I found myself going round and round on what to do with it. At first I was convinced black and white would be the way to go. None of those seem to feel right. The boarded up plywood just refused to be in monochrome. So I hit the reset button more times than I can count.

 

After several iterations I settled in on the current incarnation. I’m still torn on who the star of this photo is, the crazy paint peel or the contrast of the plywood against the brick.

 

Perhaps the stage is big enough for both…
