Antioch Illinois 2006

There used to be a farm here. Now there's a WalMart, a strip mall, a couple of fast food restaurants, and this building, the last remnant of the farm that was.

Update: I uploaded a new version of this picture. For some reason, when I exported the jpeg from Photoshop last night, all of the vegetation turned black. That's not how it was supposed to be. This time I used Adobe Lightroom Beta 4 to process the image. A couple of tweaks on the White Balance and exposure, and there was the picture I wanted. This is going to be one phenomenal tool. It's beta right now, so it's not optimized, and there are still some bugs, but when it works, it works like nothing else I've seen. Granted, as I no longer have a Mac, I haven't been able to try Aperture. I only hope I can afford it when it comes out next year. : )
