Hard To Open...

Hard To Open..., originally uploaded by RMStringer.

I did not need to use the flash for this photo. There was enough light in this area. It looks like the walls were made of red brick and then the doors were burnt during a fire. I love the different colors on the walls and the damage done from the fire...

Broken Sight...

Broken Sight..., originally uploaded by RMStringer.

This photo reminds me of how we look at life sometimes. It gets all shattered and broken up like a window that has been hit. Every know and then, we get a piece that falls out and gives us a clear, unobstructed view of how life really is. It would be nice to always have a clear view; But for the most part, we go through life looking through a broken window...

I love how the picture of what is outside of the window is all broken up from the glass. It has a tint to it and makes it look much darker than it really is. It was a cold overcast day around the 30 degree mark with a strong North wind blowing.

Industrial Tank

Industrial Tank, originally uploaded by RMStringer.

I was looking at the set of vats and i wondered what it held in it? There are about 5 individual sections of the tank. You can see the fire damage on the tank and on some of the surrounding areas as well. I had my flash on the camera and the Omin-Bounce 580 diffuser. The colors that are present on the tank are very nice and the flash brought them out as it was not a harsh light to wash them out.

Broken Wall Of Color

Broken Wall Of Color, originally uploaded by RMStringer.

While were walking around the burned out empty building, i saw many colors and textures. This photo being a prime example of those contrasts. The wall to the left has been burned and the wall to the right has algae growing on it from the moisture and the whole that lets sunlight in on it.

The was the last in this set. I took this as a timed exposure. It was 15 seconds and looks amazing!! I love how the colors came out being that the only light was from the few holes in the ceiling of the bathroom. I used the 18-70 for this photo.
