I was there yesterday (6/14), and only part left is a small section with the safe in the wall, little standing above it, but rest has been demolished :(

Wonderful find Karen. 'Tottering Hall' would have also been a relevant title.

very nice journalistic style on this shot... you captured a lot of detail. A sad state of things though.

Another magnificent find and capture, Karen! Nixon is one of my favorite authors. \/

That certainly looks unstable and a puff of wind would bring it tumbling down, perfect choice Karen! v

It looks like a house of cards, falling apart any minute! Your perspective makes it even more like that! V.

Wow, Karen this is so stunning! Excellent details on this decayed structure. V

Fabulous shot for this book title. Looks like a very precarious see through buildings. V
Janice Dunn27-Dec-2011 03:26
Wow what a shaky look those buildings have... Super find
Sheila27-Dec-2011 02:35
What a perfect shot for the book! I think it would be great in mono as well.
It looks a very interesting wreck of a building.

Wow!!
Cindi Smith27-Dec-2011 01:52
This is perfect for the title. Be careful! :) V
LynnH27-Dec-2011 01:21
This is a very interesting structure(s), it does look European in a way. What is it? Cool shot! V
John King27-Dec-2011 01:06
An astonishing image of architectural decay. Perfect for your book title. V+

Intriguing and fantastic details. Excellent work.

Endless hours of photographic fun here, though it looks a bit dangerous in places. Perfect for your book title.

That is a remarkable shot! At first I thought it was somewhere like Europe, given the shuuters, the colours, the overall 'feel' of the place through your image. Is it a village or ...? Anyway, a fantastic shot. V+
