Rusty, Cracked, & Without Pane

Here is a shot for my get pushed urban decay challenge this week. When I first saw it, it didn't do much for me, but today I loved it when seeing it with fresh eyes. I am very monochromatic this month, unintentionally. Hope to add more zest and color soon!

This shot appears rather "meh" in the thumbnail and even above, but large on black is pretty cool if you have a sec to do so.
@johnmnewman Here is another urban decay shot for you, John.

@rockinrobyn @paulien Thanks, ladies:)!

@espyetta Thanks for pointing that out. You are right. It looks so blah regular, but large is pretty darn cool. I think that I picked wrong with my main shot today. My extra album shot is getting all the love today:). Thanks, MaryBeth!

Smashing shot! Urban decay... it is too easy to find these days, unfortunately.

It's a great shot. I love the window within the window! Very nice textures and composition, too.

@wallflowersvm Damn, what do you want as your challenge? You can do anything, but please, don't make me do the 50's. Yikes, I'll see what I can do. Thanks;-).

Great decay - right up your alley if I remember rightly! And i need to thank for you clearing up a mystery for me, when you said looks good on black, I'm thinking, 'black? how?' So after over a year on here and reading all the time about 'please view large' i finally noticed the magnifying glass!!! Am I stupid or thick or what? Shakes head in disbelief. Thanks friend and hang in there doing the single mum thing for a bit. My thoughts with your husbands family.

Great title/description. Wow. How is the rest of the structure holding up? Neat find Amanda.

@adamj Thanks, Adam. It's a super cool place. Built in the 1800's and used during the Civil war and on. Check my tag for Peters Catridge Factory if you want to see more photos of the place. It's still in use for storage, but mostly falling apart and off limits inside.

@amandal Thanks for the info. Amanda. have a super Monday!

Whew! I had clicked on your name from one of my shots to take me to your page and it said page not found. I was like, "Doh!" lol...I thought you had left 365, but am glad to see you just changed your username! Anyhow, I like how this came out - really like the grid of the window against the horizontal lines of the walls. And then you have that awesome crack in there. Great shot!
March 11th, 2013  
@emrob Oh, I hadn't thought of that. Glad you found me and that I didn't quit after getting too big for my britches this weekend. Thanks, friend.

@adamj Of course, you, too!
March 11th, 2013
