A grungy gritty, rundown alleyway – the heart of Melbourne is maimed.

    thanks everyone for your comments.

    I love cracked peeling, gritty grimy walls with character and living etched upon them. Luckily Melbourne has lots.

    I love Melbourne

    Well spotted, and beautifully captured/cropped. Love the grungy colour – looks like a Renaissance painting – transported to the 21st Century!

    I really like your urban shots, and I really Like my Pentax K1000s I have 2 =P I favor them over my 2 Pentax MX bodies, buuuut the spotmatic wins over the K1000. The shutter just has the most mazing sound.
