Photo of the Month (August)

Just interested in where everybody's been this month.
Post your best shot from August, Tell your story, and give feedback.
I'll start with this one

Went to a hospital built in 1950. The place was pretty torn up for only being closed five years. This name-tag was posted on a locker in one of the bedrooms. It wasn't until then that I was truly effected by this place. Someone opened and closed this door, daily. She put her belongings in here, and knew they'd be safe. As the sticker barely held on to the cold metal door, there was still a sense of security about it. Like even though the place was vacant, that was still HER locker.

Love the colors. And the plume of smoke in the distance breaks the serenity. Cool shot. =)

Picking a favorite photo from August was tough... so I included two!



The Boardwalk by ATK195, on Flickr


Just Chillin by ATK195, on Flickr



These were taken from about seven stories up on a particularly awesome roof of a particularly awesome factory. You can see the whole set (of 14 or so photos) on my Flickr.

Went to bed at 2:00 AM, excited and hyped for my next morning's road trip. Woke up after what felt like a good snooze and looked at the clock, it was 3:00 AM.

Fuggit, out of bed and off I went... made it through foggy roads to beautiful Temagami just in time to catch the last of the morning mist.

absolutely nothing.. but the government took over the property, and have left only the tire processing plant abandonned.. that may be why...

Love the composition.

Here's mine, during a bit of roofing; the sunset was just too perfect to watch it from the ground.
