An old abandoned glass warehouse ready for demolition. The walls have been decorated with graffiti and with all the cracks in the walls and windows the light pouring in make it quite a beautiful place to view.

St. John the Baptist, Adel by WatscapePhoto
The pretty church of St. John the Baptist at Adel, Leeds. It was built c1150 in the Norman style, on the site of an earlier Saxon church. The unsympathetic porch is to protect that wonderful doorway, which is intricately carved but now, sadly, very erroded. OLYMPUS E500 / ZUIKO 4/3 14-45mm

Overpass by James Dolan
Overpass, By James Dolan Found a pretty immense vantage point in Leeds.. well I say vantage point, I really mean rooftop. Don’t worry! It was sturdy. I really like the blue tone under the overpass that appeared during processing this image – I haven’t done much edits to this, mainly cloning dust, crop, colour balance and contrast. Image taken near an industrial area in Leeds called Hunslet. Nikon D70 – ISO200, f/16.0, 30 Second/s James Dolan | james-dolan.co.uk ©

The Way is Shut... by TimWaters
The way is shut. / It was made by those who are Dead. / And the Dead keep it. / Until the time comes / The way is shut. / – J.R.R. Tolkien One of the Archways of Kirkstall Abbey. One of Britain’s best preserved abbeys, Kirkstall Abbey was founded in 1152 by a party of Cistercian monks from Fountains Abbey. In 1534 it was closed down in the ‘Dissolution of Religious Houses’ ordered by Henry VIII. The monks were pensioned-off, the roofs stripped of lead and some buildings converted for agricultural use. Many famous artists such as JMW Turner, Thomas Girtin and Moses Griffith came to paint Kirkstall Abbey’s picturesque ruins. above info taken from the Leeds City Council Kirkstall abbey webpage http://tinyurl.com/yamr2pz Camera: Nikon D40 / Date & Time: 2010:02:06 12:32:04 / Lens: AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G ED II / Focal Length: 18mm / Shutter Speed: 1/60 sec / F Number: 4.0 / ISO: 400 / Pseudo-HDR converted to Black and White and given a slight contrast enhancement in Photoshop CS4
