As far as I know, there was tendering going on to get this giant's demolition started at this spring. So you can understand how much I did want to get back there before this amazing place starts to fade away. And now I did. I did plan that I will get there at morning - I would get on the road before 7 but... I weren't able to sleep after 5 (because this place) so I was on the road at 6 a clock. It means that I were there before 8, so I did get bit morning mood from there. Now I only hope that demolition doesn't start for ages, I really would like to get see sunrise there too but now days are so long already that it would be much easier at August.



Still Those Trains Didn't Move:





Bolts and Nuts:





Morning by the Sea:





Morning Light:





Deep Holes:





Still There Were Lights On (That Strange Mood):





Tools (Against Window):





Pressure Valves of Mass-Silos Closed. Nozzles of Towers Changed. Factory in Bankruptcy (Sudden Death):





Great Hall:





On the Bridge:





On the Top, Inside:





Behind the Door Were the Light:





Another Hall:





Midday:





Transfer of Melted Iron:





One...





...and the Other:





Sleeping Power:





Massive Beauty:

So there were "selected moments" from my third trip there, 4 hours alone and I really did love every moment. Anyway, one picture is still left, that traditional off-topic-bonus-one. So let's go to my Paradise again. This year's 5th trip to there didn't offer any mist, but at least there were light from rising sun:



That's it (so far).

Damn. Very cool. If you do get back before it's gone. It would be nice to see some vast industry-scapes if possible. Your close ups are nice. But I would like to see the sprawl of this location.

We'll see what future may bring... I really am hoping to get back there sooner than later (I'm addicted already). I also must confess that I am really bad with wider views. One thing to that may be my object arsenal, 70-300mm and 18-55mm - this last one did came with my camera and it does quite horrible barrel distortion when shooting wide. And with my previous compact cams I did always like more use zoom than wide. But I'll keep this in my mind.

I agree, it's so unique place, especially in Finnish scale.

Thanks. My opinion always is that there ain't better than morning light what comes to photographing.
