Dreary
I lied. I forgot that I had this one sitting in the queue, all ready to go. Which is good, because I’ve wasted an entire night doing work. Bleh.

First thing I thought of: war.
Second thing I thought of: GDR.
Well, it makes me feel s o m e t h i n g which speaks for the picture.
A great set of feelings! Thanks for sharing; I’m glad it evoked something.
BTW, did you shoot this one in B/W right away or did you post process it?
That was done in postprocessing (“desaturated via red channel”). I separated the shot into red, green and blue channels; the red channel data is what you’re seeing here. A scaled-down version of the original:

I didn’t like the sign for 76 in the original, and wasn’t really happy with the hue of the overhang/building on the right. I really wanted the fog in the distance, and the red channel seemed to give me the best of that.
