Back to Angel Island Tom. I walked around there several years ago, but had only a point and shoot (alas no IR then). Good looking comp.

Looks like an interesting location, Tom. Love the textures. And, shame to say, I am a fan of decay.

Tim - thanks for the comments.
Scott - it's okay to like decay! the rest of the island is not too good for shooters. nice bay views, but this is the only interesting building that photographers can get into; we keep hoping that they do not 'restore' it.

regards, tom

Interesting angle, and I, too, like the texture. On a lighter note, this hospital looks pretty sterile and clean, even in its state of closure and decay!

Great framing tom. I love the texture of the peely walls as well. Adds to the feel and depth of this image so much.

Fascinating places, these derelict buidings. I wonder how this would look a tad darker (for the ambiance) and with grittier textures ?

santos - funny you should ask about darkness. on my calibrated screen my images always look a little darker that those I post here. but you are right, the darker images are better (to my eyes).

Hi Tom, Love this image. I, too, would love to see this with more contrast and maybe some 'excessive' sharpening. Seeing the detail in the peeling walls, floors, and steps would add to the "loneliness and abandonment" that you must have felt when you were there.
