This image has appeared twice already- on November 5 and just this past Sunday, November 9 as part of Robyn G’s One Four Challenge– one image processed 4 different ways and posted, one each week through November. As soon as I chose the image I sat down and did 6 different takes on it. I like the b & w version so thought I’d use it here. Joe, I hope you don’t mind!

How can decay be elegant? But I like your words. Thank you!

Thanks, Elina. The photo was taken last year. We should probably go back to see if it still stands.

This is fabulous Emilio, I wish we had more of this kind of thing in the UK.

Thanks, Louise! Funny, I would love to just wander around the UK, camera in hand. I’m finding that most of my photos are of the same type lately, decaying structures or rusty old vehicles!

I’m with the rest here, Emilio. Love the B&W, as it suits the subject matter perfectly. I’ll be interested to see the other color versions you come up with though!

Sorry to hear that, David! Some people say exercise helps slow down decay. I would suggest every day, at least once or twice an evening, lift a glass of whiskey to your health!

Great shot Emilio. Was this a log exposure? The sky has a great soft flowy quality.

Thank you! The metadata doesn’t show up on here but it was not a long exposure. It was a very bright day. Those were the actual clouds and they barely show up in the SOOC image!

The structure is the focus but that sky! Like a painting.
I’m enjoying seeing all of the different interpretations, Emilio!

Just wait, Laurie. I’ve got two more color versions to go and those two are a bit over-the-top!

I love the black and white version of this – it really gives a sense of time gone by and abandonment. 😀

I second Robyn’s comment! You really get a sense of abandonment and decay with this, excellent!

Thanks, Sue. Sometimes b & w IS the best interpretation of am image. Though I like the color versions I came up with, they just seem too pretty for stressing or accentuating the abandonment and decay.
