Yup.  That it is!  Except for the local wildlife, anyway.  Did you consider doing any keystone correction, or are you content with it as is?

I did some but honestly think the building is leaning forward in its journey toward total oblivion. Will check however. Thanks for the observation..

As to local wildlife, I never saw the first thing fly, crawl, run, slither or (no water of course), swim by and I was there for over an hour. This was as quiet and desolate a place as I've ever been.

Slight processing variation. Redo did reveal a slight tilt abberation as a smidgeon of perspective off.

You couldn't give it just a tad more space on the right, could you? It looks cramped.

I agree and I would try either to reshoot or use content-aware tool in PP.

I will probably do a reshoot and go for a more horizontal composition.

That's certainly worth a try, but it wasn't my point. The dark sky complements the abandoned building. I like the vertical composition: I'd just prefer it (as the punchline in the original shaggy dog story almost goes) not so damn vertical.

That was my "not as successful as I thought it would be" attempt to give the building back some of its former majesty, lording over the community it supported for so long.

I do understand what you're getting at and I will incoporprate that vertical/horizontal thinking into the next compositions.
