This is an interesting image, Andrew….a bit on the haunted side. I like the way you’ve captured the dank and aged character of the place. What a tale these walls could tell. Thanks for showing it.
Naomi Frost, 10 months ago

I like this alot. Tones are great and its wonderful how you can’t quite make out what’s at the end – adds an air of mystery.
Sean Farragher, 10 months ago

its like an old painting
Jennifer Resemius, 9 months ago

this is beautiful. I agree that it’s somewhat haunting.
Susan Grissom, 9 months ago

I love that the shot leads you through multiple doorways. i love the aged feeling and yesit has a spooky feeling about it I couldn’t help imagining, even thought the building is empty, that one would walk cautiously through it, it has the feeling of spirits lurking around. good work…

This has a great painterly feel.. the depth and colours work well… loving the concrete textures!
trickyruby, 9 months ago

like the tones and soft texture of the walls. Did it smell of tramps urine?
Andrew Walker, 9 months ago

I must admit there is a certain ‘musty’ lived in by tramps odour to the place and the occasional empty bottle of white lightening cider.
Gerijuliaj, 8 months ago

OMG Andrew the memories came flooding back….... to 1974/5 I used to haunt these arches with my best friend as her brother was a painter and along with all the other painters he used to sell his work here…....excellent clarity and thank you for the sweet memories….. P.S. I was about 13-14years old at the time…....
