Oh wow, those are some great pictures! It’s funny how we see thing that are damaged, old and rusty, but only think of them as trash that needs to be collected, renovated and fixed.

I love the pictures, you show an entire new side to that type of thinking. It is captured beautifully.

I especially like that one of the hallway where the wallpaper is shaving off … all of it. It almost looks like it was done on purpose with carefully placed thin paper.

I’m glad you enjoyed the images. I’ve just recently become interested in this type of photography and these are some of my favorite examples.
