What a great shot and good eye. This scene offers so many opporutntiies...you could probably enter the next 10 challenges with stuff here.

This is derelict but not quite desolation for me. A great shot with gorgeous tones and rich textures. I would have cropped out the very top roof line - leaving the shadow of it. A reluctant [8]

The dark sepia really ages the image - it is almost like a step back into the depression. There are a lot of textures here, which helps lead the eye around the photograph - there seems to be something to look at in every section. The tonal range is excellent, there is nothing too dark or too bright. A wonderful capture of desolation, as oxymoronic as that sounds.

You have done a good job here. I like the feeling you create it. Monochrome is the excellent choice.

Actually is a nice picture, but it evokes (for me) more a feeling of "past" than "desolation"

Meets the contest and very well done

I love the part of the image to the right of the wooden pole most, and would prefer it cropped to exclude the area to the far left. I love the tatty windows and hanging wiring and the texture of the bricks. Good choice on B/W too.

this is jampacked with textures and lines and shapes - do you think you might have wanted to center on one?
 08/13/2003 03:55:30 PM
I like how the lighting captures the character of the building, particularly the bricks. I also think the tree branches and pole in the front adds depth to the shot that would otherwise have been lost without it. Nicely done.

Good image. Wish I had stuff like that to shoot around here.

Reminds me so much of the abandoned warehouses of the Northeast, especially the little towns that seem to have been sapped of young blood. What sadness.

I find the wooden pole a bit distracting.
