I have just come back from a visit to the Exhibition Centre, which used to be used as a cinema along time ago. I was inspired to go to this location by a photographer
who's name is Andy Wallis.
The area was really interesting as there was a lot of broken windows, shattered walls and rusty metalwork!! The Exhibition Building was part of the former Stanton Iron Works which is now closed and all the workers moved on. I managed to get inside the building as I met the owner who let me inside and talked me through the site and which room was which. This was a very rare opportunity and very lucky as if I had turned up 1 minute earlier or 1 minute later he wouldn't have been there and I wouldn't have had the chance to see inside the building!

Hi Dave,
Thanks for being interested enough to look at my work. i can see from this site that you too are influenced by decay, i feel it can supply fantastic colour, contrast and atmosphere.
you seem to have a good eye for an image. do you shoot with digital?
As i feel some of the shots would really have benefited from some HDR treatment in photoshop.
but its nice to see a photographer who can back up his work with a story.
