Thanks for all the comments guys. I'm sooo stoked!!
Mandy - It is off of I-575 exit 11 i think. It is less than 1/2 mile west of the interstate. Here's a link that tells more about it. //roadsidegeorgia.com/site/sixes_mill.html

This is a great shot, very dark and moody, almost like the building itself has a personality. Good choice for B&W, well done! 9

I love the rustic"ness" of this photo. Shows excellent detail. Beautiful lighting and excellent use of B&W. I see a ribbon winner here. 10 + more, if I could.

Excellent job!! I REALLY like this one!! :)

Love the deep brooding tones. A grainy filter might actually enhance this, although I do like the clear focus of this shot. Great contrast. Nicely composed too.

I really like the contrast in this picture. The house really sticks out in the background and the texture of what looks like old vines up the side add to the overall impact. Nice pic.

Nice shot but I would like to see more contrast between the building and the hillside. Not sure how you could have done that though.

nice, dramatic shot.

It feels like stepping back in time. Very appropriate photo for the theme and well executed!! Good work

Nice picture. Interesting choice to flip the picture horizontally.

Beautiful shot, love the b/w really makes me feel the timeframe this building was constructed in.

Nice B/W
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Very dramatic..wonderful textures...the B & W is very effective...if this image had a coloring that was a bit warmer, it think it would actually look like an old photograph...the clarity and DOF really harken to this...very nice.
