    Which one do you believe qualifies for a more artistic, or at least, more valuable photograph.

    I am not saying these are higher art then the photographs in the last thread, but it's all I have scanned right now.

    #1 would most likely sell the best. #2 is the most interesting in terms of vernacular photography.

    Thank you. I didn't do any image manipulation that I can remember. I processed the image about 3 years ago now. I think it was just the lighting that gave it that effect.

    I thought I added this one but I see I didn't. This one would be my favorite.

    I could have uploaded some better ones but just wanted to see what people thought about these, which I also picked out of bunches from antique malls.

    Of the pictures you've posted here, I like that last one best as well. The combination of grass, shadows and tree make it look like there's a wave inundating the building. Looking at it as a thumbnail shows what I mean:
