This is such an interesting building. Its shape and stateliness are very appealing. If this building coud talk, it would have some great stories to tell. It's unfortunate that these pieces of history will be demolished. Your picture captures and preserves its dignity. Great shot from a perpect angle.

Well, Greg, most people here are the typical mediocre minds that think that being able to buy a camera and to pay 25$ a year is already enough for "doing arts", as they say day in, day out. If you ask them, they never work! They are "doing arts"! As if that was a matter of personal incompetence raised to the degree of artistic work. But let's neglect the many kids that we have here. They don't count anyway.
On the image now. Well, imagine what this couls look like, under the same excellent lighting, of you were perhaps a bit nearer to the building and with a wider angle lens. Could that bring something? A huge dirty wall in front of my eyes (as a spectator) and the rest of the building making the leading lines together with the rest of the scene? I was not there in order to be really able to have some definite idea, and thus the question. Could this one need an exagerating depth and feel of distance???
Cheers!
Nick

Thanks Nick. I appreciate Your comments. Most people just say nice shot and offer no criticism. I played a lot with angles on this one but in the end there were to many distacting objects in the wider versions. Unfortuantly I could only get tgis tight crop. I may go back and hopefully the parked trucks are gone.
Cheers Nick
Regards Greg

The composition is better on this one, Greg! Just the right things in the image, and nothing more. Perhaps you could take some steps to the left and turn the camera to thr right, for a more depth enhancing take that would (I assume) match the isolated place. Still the lighting is exactly the right one for such images. Somewhere between a documentary and a surreal scene.
Cheers!
Nick

Hi Greg,
I tried to Email you but was rejected for spamlike contents.
I'm fime, thanks for asking & hope you are too. Just occupied with writing & too lazy to downsize photos. Nevertheless I have a new Panasonic, the best digital I ever had, with X21 opticall zoom, Leica.
I attach a sample.
My very best,
Rafi
