I went back to the building I posted some shots of a few weeks ago, was having a frustrating day trying to find subjects to shoot. Exploring the lower floors of this complex proved rewarding, to my eye anyway.

I really like the second and the last! The fifth one reminds me of an old Doom II level :p

last one got my attention most. very interesting hallway(?). I'd love to see you shoot 4 or five more in that same hall getting differing perspectives and even some close up of the details. It could make for a really interesting theme and test your creativity immensely. Thanks for sharing.

Scott I will definitely follow that suggestion as I will be going back to explore more....chet79 glad you like it, the complex is apartments that were built in the 70's as an experiment in total village living with shops and public areas, it failed.

Julian thanks, glad you like them...chey79 no it still functions as public housing and holds a couple of thousand people, you wouldn't think so though from the look of it eh.

thanks Grentz that's one of my faves, it seems so vast and it is pretty big in real life.
