The Remains (Tram Yards, Sydney) - HDR Treatment by Kevin Thai
Featured 2011
6th April – In the HDR Photography group
10th April – In the Quality Layered Work + HDR group
Decided to venture to this place once again, only to find this time it was a ‘little’ more difficult to get inside. But after learning the fact that this place along with it’s history of trams and buses, the whole building will be demolished, I had to see it again before it goes away.
This was one of many shots of amazing artwork that will one day unfortunately disappear and never to be seen again.

This is an absolutely fantastic finf prefectly captured; great composition too.
Wow!!! Awesome shots!
the whole building was originally heritage protected unfortunately the graffitti art killed it’s protection even the trams were originally in mint condition, it’s called demolision by neglect
I do agree with you there Phil to a certain point, I had no idea the place was heritage protected and have heard many stories of the trams and buses being restored to their prime condition when they were first moved there. I am not all for the disrespect and neglect that the graffiti art has left on the premises, but at the end of the day are there boundaries to where you can find something that can be interpreted as art?
On a side note – thanks for the feature! :)
