I love old abandoned places like this. The toning, the comp with the mountains in the BG sort of repeating the rooflines work for this subject, giving it a look of a place photographed long ago.

looks nice, did you resize the photo before you edited? if so try doing your editing before resizing, editing a bigger image will give you cleaner results

There could have been a little more contrast as I had trouble distuinguishing the house on the left from the background.

Nice shot and typical of a rural landscape. Sepia adds a good feel

Intersting landscape - almost looks a bit apocolyptic in some ways - maybe its the sepia saturation.

A fixer-upper! Price just reduced! Wonderful mountain views! I love the sepia tone and the composition.

the tree in this picture makes it seem out of place and i don't really like the one color theme, everything kind of blends together

Sharpening overdone. The sepia color doesn't seem to add anything to this. I think the contrast of a bright blue sky would have offset the dilapidated buildings better.
