Abandoned in Black and White

Today DH and I took a break from house arranging and unpacking and set off for a bit of an outdoorsy photo adventure, hunting down some old abandoned buildings that formed part of a now disused reform school.

It’s an amazing site, No Trespassing signs aplenty and for the most part we managed to stay within the confines of the law, sneaking peaks inside the old buildings with the aid of long lenses and some pumped up ISO.

Amazing but also really sad to see these wonderful buildings being allowed to lapse into such a state of disrepair – especially considering the number of folk in this world who have no proper roof over their heads! … Though we did spy a pair of Buzzards making good use of the loft space in one house, so I suppose that might count!
