McMahon Hall
Built in 1895
The Admissions Building of Catholic University
in Washington DC
It's probably one of the more castle-ish buildings around
DC. I thought it lent itself quite well to what Paint Shop Pro
refers to as the aged newspaper look. This one is quite aged!
Here is the original color version...
Beautiful either way!
(but kinda spooky in sepia... don'tcha think?)

You can almost see the ghost coming out the windows and the piercing eyes starring at you! Ohhh Scarry!

I don't think it looks spooky. I think it looks classy! Beautiful in color too.

In the sepia photo, the building looks elegant, but the scenery is a bit ominous!

You do wonderful things with your sepia pics, Melli. I think the first picture looks a bit spooky, yes, the original is far friendlier-looking :)

Ya'll have older buildings than we do, I think. Neat pic!

i think the sepia picture does look like you could write a scary story about it. It is a beautiful building.

The sepia makes me think it's an old picture. I like both, but perhaps the sepia best.

Oh Melli, that first photo is incredible! I love it! Not so spooky! And of course the second, well, it's the original gorgeous building! First time I've seen Catholic University in DC! Thanks for playing along! :)

Both are beautiful, but I agree, the sepia one could look a little spooky!

I agree that both photos are beautiful. I love the sepia one though! I wouldn't say spooky....definitely MYSTERIOUS, though!!

I love those kinds of buildings and you're right, it looks good aged. I see ghosts everywhere.
