Cheers, Sam.

Did I mention the curse of the photo moderator?
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

I've been documenting the forgotten, neglected parts of my building at work as we move out and took this one last week:

retro input by AlistairBeavis, on Flickr

This was in a really dark hidden backroom, taken with available light, with the 50mm prime.
Minor tweaks to contrast and colour in ACR.

The last submission will be December 31st at 11.59PM. (If anyone submits around that time I will be very concerned!)
I'm working a nightshift on NYE, so I could submit something that late, a photo of some decaying party goer in town perhaps.
In fact I might try for a better photo anyway.

Decay.  This was a gun emplacement on Headon Warren, in the West Wight:

50mm prime lens, bit of levels, but not much.

Commonwealth games Velodrome at Meadowbank - Edinburgh. The Drome was built to host track cycling events for the 1986 commonwealth games and has since gone on to train the likes of Chris Hoy. They don't give two sh!ts about the entire commonwealth site anymore and is a miserable place to be
