Report - Demolition site, Warwickshire

[Chrissie81]

Hello, I’m new. I’m mainly interested in abandoned places from a photographic point of view and photography is my main hobby. These images are of a warehouse that is in the process of being dismantled in warwickshire near Leamington spa. Can’t tell you much of interest as it’s not a site of any real historical significance, but it was quite atmospheric. I hoped to capture some of the creepiness of the place but not sure I managed it. There are signs stating dogs and security patrol the site but I think if that was ever true it is not any more. There is an 8ft wire fence with barbed wire around the perimeter, and a thicket of thorny brambles to contend with after that. Chrissie.

Nice - ginormous sheds are always somehow interesting.

From the picture with the temple in the background and comparing with google earth. It looks like it was Delphi Technologies.

That's a biggie. Good stuff. Always like the perspective of big factories.

thanks, it's what you're into I guess (nor not). The sky was pretty blown out in a few shots so I had to bring that back in with photoshop, upped the clarity a bit as they were RAW images so looked a little flat, but other than that they are pretty true to life.

Nice pictures there, good work. Maybe update the title though?
