wow. I just love how peaceful and untouched this place looks. The quiet in an abandonment is one of my favorite things. I would say you captured that pretty well here. Well except for the graf in the back of 2. but i love it still. (1 & 4 are prob my favorites though.)

Blah Blah Blah. Shut up and open the damn door.

i really really really like number 4, great shot. i have to agree with Jonno about the graffiti in 2... its a good shot, but without the graf it would have been a lot better. cool location though

i like them all except 3 and 5, i feel like there's a bit too much going on in 3 so its hard to distinguish whats the subject and then in 5 i feel if you had angled the camera downward to see the warped floors as opposed to laying the camera down level with then it would have given the shot i different feel

4 was close, but needed a little tweaking. In Photoshop I removed the barrel distortion with Lens correction and bumped up the contrast a little with levels and curves, and then sharpened a bit. Also trimmed off a little from the right side, to make the distance from the edge to the pillars the same on both sides. The bones of the photo are good, though. Try shooting with -1 exposure compensation (if you're using shutter or aperture priority).



5 has too much foreground to really show the floors warping. Get closer.

I think 1 is the strongest of the lot as presented.
