Corridors in the depths of a derelict Victorian Asylum taken yesterday. I converted to mono and added a blue bell scene on the wall as a stark contrast to what I saw in front of me. It's a real shame that such an incredible building will be demolished.

, and we'd have poppies instead of bluebells. Very nice.A multidimensional image, you never know what lurks in the bluebells. They give this that extra twist that makes it different.

No wonder they want to pull it down Pete . God alone knows what horrors were performed there . You have captured it admirably, made me shiver . The bluebell image was a flash of genius on your part. Nobody knew what went on behind the pretty Bluebells . xx
I like the lighting in the original. I'm trying to imagine what I'd think of the place without knowing its history. The archways and architecture appeal to me and there is a sadness that springs from the obvious neglect of such a fine old building. The wire/rope on the left is in the form of a noose, quite unnerving. The coloured picture was the first thing to catch my eye.
Great conversion Pete and I agree the addition of the bluebell wood is pure magic! Just pleased you managed to capture this before it is lost forever...

This is the type of work I like. Would love to try it myself. Maybe HDR would work well?
Like the touch with the bluebells

Watcha Pete,
clever bit of work here, the idea of putting the calming, coloured pic in the B&W chaos is reminiscent of the calming pictures hung in psychiatric wards to still chaotic minds, it's as if the pic is there to still the laws of chaos working on this old building. That's a bit of pretentious waffle init
v1 has it for me.
best
Mick
