Challenge: Desolation (Classic Editing)
Camera: Sony DSC-P72
Location: Paris (France)
Date: Aug 6, 2003
Aperture: 2.8
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/250
Galleries: Urban, Architecture
Date Uploaded: Aug 7, 2003

Shot taken at an ld "refrigator" building in south-west of Paris. That old building in ruin is occupied by artists since a few years, with windows built into a former blind wall.

I choosed to turn it into a black and white photo to fit even better with the Desolation topic of the challenge.

Devestation maybe, but I don't see desolation.

Shot looks a bit skewed anti-clockwise but the image is good and well observed. Not quite desolation though. [5]

Wonderful, clear picture! I would like to have seen this in color...to show all the colors used in this "artwork!" Still, a wonderful picture!

If they could only put their painting skills to a more constructive use...

I feel distracting the lack of verticality, a 8 degree rotation would have improved the picture
7.0 - 1.5: 6

Interesting. I would like to see it in color. The bottom area is distracting to me.

This place is teeming, not desolate

others might see this as a sign of life in an otherwise desolate place. cool photo anyway...

the clutter against the spare windows works well

Creative idea for the theme.

I like this picture - the focus is sharp and there is nice contrast between the dark and light areas. The scene, though showing urban decay, doesn't really say "desolation" to me.
