I was looking for something exactly like this, urbex with someone inside the frame giving me that sense of allure or even intrigue as to what's on their mind and how decayed and beautiful the background is with the light falling onto the ladies hair the backlight/side light i like the look of along with the pure white dress and angelic face...the overall image quality is well balanced in light and contrasts its been executed well indeed

Thanks for entering

You took me somewhere else when i viewed this photograph it has high technical merit, i just loved the book and position of the lens flair compliments the overall image, sense of mystique and weightlessness when you get "lost" in said book or a painting as i did with this photograph of which impressed me in many ways, lighting, blending and also in the sense the model, well she was a true urbex model or model prepared to sacrifice the dirty feet or more for art, almost like a ballet dancer at the end of a show...metaphorically but another story entirely conceptual to the viewers... individual eye.

How interesting indeed the appearance of the suffering but yet beauty within the person in the corner of the door Firstly and the clothing, secondly i like the black and white finish youve applied to the photography in the post processing, the backdrops beautiful questionably deep within detail and thought for me and perhaps all viewers...the mask is a very significant finishing touch.

Thanks for entering duch a beautiful deep moody urbex portrait... Visualtheatrics

Love it! the leading lines made it special for me and jump out! it may not be as old as id of liked it to be but its truly a differently styled urbex shot, meaning its colourful less drained more dynamic but yet the leaves give it away how its been abandoned, good old abandoned engineering at its finest! additionally its not a house or a building its outdoor urbex, very cool.

What a fantastically dark image with lots of true character the lighting its nice and balanced, shot almost at that perfect timing (the break of a dull light on your subject the bike) makes it look the highlight of the image, but yet there's many more if you look dotted around and its beauty in decay & i love it, brilliant perception of the brief i titled black and white imaging also attracted me to this lovely different image...

Brief

See more contest details

I would really like to see your urbex photos. Urbex photography (urban exploration) involves entering and capturing abandoned buildings such as old factories, derelict houses or other urban ruins. All styles of image are welcome, including composites. Try to be creative and think outside the box. Aim to keep the viewer interested and be as conceptual as you like.
