Years of decay

    A shot from another convent in Mechelen, Belgium, wich seems to be full of such abandoned places. I like the decay in this picture very much, after years of just being empty. First i was not sure about this picture, but i kept me looking at it everytime i browsed through that set. So i decided to put it on flickr just to see your reactions.3xp.

      I love textures and old things in general - they're pieces of history and of our past... So I think this is fantastic! :)

      Prachtig kleuren, veel expressie in je foto's. Ik ben zelf net begonnen met fotografie. Kan je misschien een tip van de sluier oplichten over hoe je dat effect bereikt?

      Fascinating building. I think it would look better in natural light instead of HDR, though.
