Broken Planes

An intact window is hard to find in these abandoned buildings. This paticular window is part of a corridor in the Dever State School. Part of this campus was used in World War II as a prisoner camp, it held a few thousand Italian and German POW's.

I can't really put my finger on why I like this picture, I think it's the combination of b&w and the depth of focus ... nice

I like the lights and shadows here...and that small pattern in the background. Nice shot!

Very cool shot. Good idea to keep it B&W. Like the DOF
NJ & SB Photography :: May 12, 2008 at 04:59 PM  
The B&W are wonderful, and so is the composition, good job
John Maslowski :: May 12, 2008 at 05:39 PM  
Interesting shot. Like the B&W, great contrasts and DOF. Nice job composing this one.

This is a great picture, with that information with it, it is even more dramatic, I am glad you did the B&W, love the DOF

That is interesting, I have never heard of Dever State School.

Really like the focus on the pieces of glass. This picture tries to tell a story!

A fine graphic image with nice contrast. Creative composition.

A interesting framing and as always a beautiful game on the grey gamut.

Very nicely composed with a layered look and the darkness gives a hint of oppression or imprisonment.

It gives me a "solitude" feeling. For me its a very lonely picture, but a good one
yiannis krikis :: May 13, 2008 at 02:53 PM  
great image

The detail of the broken glass is striking. I like the effect of the blurred background.
gallcat :: May 14, 2008 at 12:39 AM  
The horizon is very simple and cool.
