The angle chosen and the mist both serve to add to the abandoned feel of this. I almost want those wee bits of trash removed, though.

I don't understand this title pertaining to this image... and the large, tooth-shaped, white, blown area immediately commands my attention, so I don't understand the image either.

I'm looking forward to your photographer's notes so I can sleep. :D

Many titles in this challenge convey sadness; coupled with the neglect and decay in this image, I think it is the saddest.

Personally, I would have cloned out those distracting pieces of white trash on the ground. It is, nonetheless, an effective image with the chosen angle of the structure, the slightly elevated PoV, and the boarded windows - even the one that has fallen away.

Very appropriate submission for this challenge.

Like the framing and the toying with the edges by ambiguous shapes as if to say, "get it or not it don't matter". Figure it out later. 6
