Love the door, Jimmy. I am a little ambivalent about the pole, though.

Thanks JAS, the pole is actually an out of focus swinging screen door. I shot at a large aperture to blur all but the red door. I just never thought of the screen door as distracting I guess you just proved my wife wrong! She says I am always right! - jimmy

love the door. the texture and colour is wonderful. I am with JAS that I don't like the screen door. it's a distraction and does not add to the composition.

See, those of us who don't sleep with you can be honest

Shooting this from a few steps to your right might have made a frame out of that swinging door Jimmy.

Great Idea Mad. I am just a little s...l...o...w sometimes To tell you the truth, I got in and got out quickly. I had no permission to be there! I just couldn't resist this place it is so creepy and interesting. "Swan Song" pic was taken at this site also. I may post some originals so everyone can see just how creepy this place looks in the real - jimmy

[Jason]

You definitely captured the creepiness in that shot!

Thanks Jason. Rural and urban decay is just so much fun to shoot. Junk shops are great too - jimmy
