Nice trespassing. I shudder to think what sort of conferences have taken place here.

Even amoung decay and ruin there is always life. I find it interesting that in this ruin of a building there is greenery growing. And it is not just the brown dull weeds that further speak decay it is actual green sprigs, grass or moss. Two decrepit chairs...heh, makes me think of the saying sit and watch the grass grow. If this was a corner office then mayhap the word spray painted on the tan chair is an editorial comment on how things were run; "sloppy". Interesting presentation and composition on urban decay.
