Under the towers

This was taken in a small grubby room at the end of a walkway underneath towering silos
it was an old brewery in Italy and this particular morning the place was bathed in an orange glow from the sunrise

Bath Time

Abandoned villa in Italy

Five days in Italy

Sometimes I reflect on my hobby and it does seem a little crazy
5 days in a car in Italy driving from Rome to Turin and some stunning scenery

Rome, Florence, Bologna, Turin – some of the most stunning cities (apparently) and I didnt get to see any of them
Instead I decide to seek out the abandoned and derelict places in the outskirts of these cities

Still it was an amazing trip, over 1500 kms some stories to tell and photos to share and memories which is the most important thing

stay tuned for the photos…

As the melody fades away

its always the things that would have given the greatest joy that look so sad when they are discarded

Micro Landscapes

This is fresh from a post christmas outing today
although it looks like a night scene, this was a very underexposed image of a shaft of sunlight in a derelict brickworks
lots of bricks with moss and plants growing in between them just caught the light at the right time and it came out like this
