Empty auditorium

I revisited the abandoned school with a couple of friends who had seen earlier photos. Of course, when you revisit a place, you should be able to find many more photo opportunities. This shot is a blend of three exposures because of the huge range of light from various directions and sources.

SONY SLT-A77V 4/5 seconds F/16.0 ISO 400 27 mm (35mm equiv.)

Welcome to all. I began blogging Retained-Images in 2004 at My-Expressions.com. It is gone now.

A somewhat retro amphitheatre but which has kept a certain charm despite everything

Superb framing of this incredible abandoned theatre. We really expect to see actors arrive on stage...

@Ronnie 2¢: but to fit the setting, hte actors would have to appear in tattered costumes!
