Description
The West Dundee Illinois Village Hall is an anchor in the business district of that Fox River community. Over 100 years old, the building stands tall overlooking the valley containng the Fox River to the east.
I photographed the tower with its symmetry looking for details that I found visually interesting. This image focuses on the mechanical vents and office windows under the clock (which seems obligatory in these turn of the 20th century public buildings) without the clock itself breaking the symmetry of these windows and vents. Converted to black and white with a vignette and some contrast added, the image pays homage to Walker Evans.

I processed the raw image file shot with a Canon 60D with an 18-55 Canon lens using Photomatix Pro 5, filters from Topaz Labs including Detail 3 and DeJPEG 4 as well as some minor tweaking in Photoshop including sCurve adjustments, brightness, saturation and the camera raw filter to produce this HDR black and white image.
