Aint a-gonna need this house no longer
Aint a-gonna need this house no more
Aint got time to fix the shingles
Aint got time to fix the floor
Aint got time to oil the hinges
Nor to mend the windowpane
Aint a-gonna need this house no longer
Hes a-gettin ready to meet the saints

Out for a drive today saw this and it reminded me of carregwen (Rob)'s little idea of matching shots to song lyrics.

Please note quick shot so no serious comments, 'Just For Fun'

I know that you stated no serious comments but I do like this building that you have found, the image that you have presented, I reckon it would work a lot better in monochrome, plus have it off centre a bit so that we could see a side wall as well. I'm sure that this old building has got a lot of photographic potential. Well spotted.

Thanks Barry

Might go back and try off centre shot. This was the most photogenic view but we'll see.

What about some close up work of the deteration of the building. Like old light switches with the wallpaper peeling off behind, that sort of thing. OK it might mean a bit of trespassing, but as long as you are polite if challenged then I have never had a problem.

Warning on building 'derelict site do not enter'.

But there again got a hard hat and head for that matter.

I'll have to start thinking more like a photographer.

It's leaning to lhe left, and I think it's the house not the picture LOL. Well spotted and nice idea!
