Anderson basement looking south

Wendy @farmreporter gave me this get-pushed challenge: "Go through your Favorites album and pick one of your favorites, explain what you liked about it, and try to replicate it. You don't have to produce the same photo, but replicate what inspires you about that photo. " This and another shot are inspired by this shot by Alison Tomlin:

Mine are really nothing like the original except the off-kilter slant that I liked and the feeling of looking down through a long space. The other is a rustic and abandoned interior. I had hoped to find something closer to that, but didn't have the time. So I took some experimental shots in the basement of Anderson Hall on the campus, which has figured in a number of shots I've posted here. The effect is quite different, and the two shots don't live up to my hopes. But they have some merits of their own.

@farmreporter My procrastination in posting beats yours haha

@fueast Alison, this is nothing like your shot (:"Gutted") but thanks for the inspiration. Someday I may try again to capture what you did.

Love the tunnel effect you have here - works so well with your clear focus going all the way to the end.

@mcsiegle nice one! The clinical feel in yours might actually be scarier. In fact I walked past that old mill a few weeks ago and wondered if I would dare to explore it on my own in it's current state. 365 certainly pushed me to go to unusual places!
