Comment from TBI John
Crap , my bucket list ... I'm there . A skull on the front door , a bone to get thru the door .
Rotors on front porch .
I love the place and I gotta see the inside ...
If they give you a hard time about shooting inside ,
tell them that you're with Nat Geo and you're doing a piece on Kanai Lake . It's a cool piece , thanks .

A great shot. The combination of the rustic building with the almost psychedelic colors of the painting is fantastic. I like the frame filling composition and the very fine details.

That looks like a great place to eat, drink and be merry! I love the artwork on the building and the loving way you've framed the picture with a mountain in the background photo-bombing the roadhouse. Very nice!

Wow, Pat! I am sorry I don't have any 6's left, but this is definitely one that deserves one...as all of yours do. At first I thought this was a painting. It's one of those places that you can only dream of finding to paint. You have made it look even more magical using a HDR filter. It almost feels unsafe going in there for a cold one. I think it's fantastic...keep them comin.

nice use of HDR to make the details on the walls and the sign pop up
good angle of shot, focus, details and composition
thanks for sharing

Comment from Dick Lee Shia
I would have commented on the exterior ambiance before reading your notes...
Yes, I believe you as this seem to preserve an old tradition of fine dining whose culinary expertise was passed on from generation to generation...
Subtle illumination.
Subdued colors.
A poignant painterly feel.
A nostalgic vintage image.
Thanks for sharing...

This is a nice image. I almost graded it down because I think the HDR is overly obvious. It is one of those tools that can be good in some circumstances. Here I think it makes things look odd and over processed. Nice old building with lots of character and color. I would want to eat here. Not sure I like the snippet of mountain peaking over the corner of the building. I would prefer none or more Well seen.

Thank you , I really appreciate your thoughts . This believe it or not didn?t change drastically with the HDR, it?s worn so it had that odd highlighting to begin with, I will get another shot of this this summer and post it . The food is excellent here !

I love this photo, the work you did on it with whatever mixed media you used is beautiful.
It has such a wonderful feel to it, with lovely detail and a softness that I happen to love.
The rustic building looks like a wonderful place and I'm sure the food is delicious.
Love the colors and the perfect framing of this shot.

Thank you so much ! This building is old and worn and to begin with it had this highlighted look, it was also odd lighting the worn spots seemed to glow, I added the HDR to bring out the details. I really appreciate your support!

My pleasure

I love the ruggedness of this building...so appropriate for Alaskans. The red door against the silvery gray of the building is striking. I would love to go there and have a fried halibut and chips and a cold brew. Yum!
