Yep it was the evening. I took them about 3 hours ago.
Thank you for the compliments.

OK...I *think* this one is good...LOL!!! I'll let YOU be the judge of that!!??? :O)

Not sure how "abandoned" it is...obviously it's an old barn entrance. They don't use this door anyway--or so it appreared to me. Mabye there is a back door??

Would love some C&C please!!

I blame you all.....each and every one of you here. I've become addicted to abandoned places!!! LOL!!

This is a very small stone-type church that is no longer in use. Someone, looks after the place...mows the lawn ad such... I'm thinking that the "church" still owns this place. The property is small, and on a main road in my small town.

Before you ask....no, I couldn't "get in" (LOL!), but I did peek in the window, and I got this, ummm, interesting shot! It man not be great, but I kind of like it!

Also, not sure if you can see it in this shot...but there are still oil lamps hanging on the side of some of the beams.

Oh yeah....and there I am too!! LMAO!

Nice site, Marty! :thumbup: Reminds me of Bethlehem Steel, a bit. I love old plants and refineries, and all that rust is great texture. Did you get anymore of it? Looks really cool. TY.

Nice shot Marty, and welcome to the photo forum!

Thanks BB.

Man (and woman), this thread has produced some of the best photos I have ever seen. This thread has the potential to be the biggest, image wise, on the site because the opportunities are endless. Im making it my homepage . (thank god for broadband)

CRAP!!! You know, at first I didn't see anything beyond the screen....my monitor is apparently darker than it should be! When I tried to enlarge the image, I just about crapped! :OP

Anyway, I went back and played with another photo...taken same day/time, slightly different angle...enlarged it, brightened it....not sure what it is...but it looks, er, ummm...'hamless'??

I can still see a face in the shadow. There are two eyes just above the horizontal frame, and an open mouth just below it. It is really faint in the shadow, but....eyes were watching ya.

Excellent shooting Miss Bully. Love that little place you have there.
Marty...welcome to the forum and this little theme. Great of you to join.
Arto....love those shots you added. That black and white images is nice.

Hello everyone! Totally diggin' this thread. Some really great shots being thrown up here.

Hopefully, if plans hold out, I will be shooting an abandoned place on Saturday. I won't give any hints about the place, for I am hoping the shots will speak on their own.

 

[Chiller]

Hm.... hope it is not just my wonky eyes playing tricks, but I borrowed your pic, and lightened it up even more, then circled the eyes and mouth. They are very faint, so if you have a dark monitor, you might not see it.

 

[Artograph]

Yes, apparently...my monitor is pretty dark....oh, man...
