Fort Worth Log Cabin – Shaw Cabin and Gristmill

Earlier this week I went to the Fort Worth Log Cabin Village for the first time.  My daughter had been there before and made her own candles and really loved playing in one of the cabins.  I grew up in a farm house that was built in 1850 so exposed beams and other things in the village seemed common place.

When I last shutdown Aperture I apparently left it on a photograph I took of Shaw Cabin and Girstmill.  Tonight when I started up Aperture the image really struck me.  I’m now sharing that image with you.  I have others that I’m still processing and hope to share someday.

Shaw Cabin and Gristmill

 

For those interested in what processing I did: 5 bracketed shots, HDR Efex Pro, then Silver Efex Pro for conversion to B&W and the TinType filter.  I’ve been reading about TinType lately and have thoughts of maybe someday using that form of photography, certainly creates one of a kind images.  Until I get the time and expertise to do real TinType photography my modern darkroom will have to suffice.  I thought TinType would be appropriate here given the date of many items at the village and when TinType photography came about, 1850s according to Wikipedia.
