Brew House

Posted by Steve Rice (Olympia, United States) on 16 January 2009 in Architecture and Portfolio.

The old Olympia Brewery in Tumwater, WA, USA. The company, now defunct, had an advertising slogan of "It's the water." referring to the excellent water available from wells in Tumwater Valley.

Here the vigneting works better than in the previous, I think. It's a great B/W image Steve.

A post-processing “vintage" perfectly successful, the white vignetting is exact, it makes it possible to balance the photograph with this massive and dark building Bravo ;)
