I believe this back door leads to many lost yesterdays. As a matter of fact, I know it does. I found this doorway at the abandon mill with the trucks of yesterday. The inside looks to be some sort of power station for the factory nearby. It's been pretty much gutted, with just traces of ghosted machinery remaining. I didn't venture very far in for fear of the floor giving way. Really, not a fit place for man nor beast.This entrance was a beauty in its day though, I bet.

Back Door

Ah, here is a shot of beautiful melancholy.
ReplyDeleteIt's a beauty now, as well.
ReplyDeleteA shame that it's abandoned. . .the brick work shown here looks substantial.
ReplyDeleteNicely composed, Birdman, to emphasize both the original lines of the door and its current decomposition.
ReplyDeleteCharming architecture and love the "forgotten place" aspect of your photo. I'm a big fan of door shots anyway but this is quite nice!
ReplyDeleteA lot of history there I'll bet! Looks like you caught a bit of the sky reflected in the glass.
ReplyDeleteThe way I see it it's still a beauty now.
ReplyDeletewould love to see inside, but a beauty of a shot...raises so many questions...and fires the imagination
ReplyDeleteBricks, they always make me think....they are so simple yet are so important to some buildings... beautiful buildings often come in brick form ;-)
ReplyDeleteHave a good night!

Hi there, Thanks for visiting my blog. Hope you come back often.... You live in a fabulous area of the country.... I hope to see some more photos from your area---so I'll check out some of your archive pictures.
ReplyDeleteWhen I see old buildings and door like you pictured, I always wonder what could have gone on in past there... IF Walls could TALK--we'd learn alot, wouldn't we?????
Great picture.

This door has a language of its own -- revealed by the interface of its users. To me it has beauty today as it lives through its shadows and patina. Your posts are fantastic -- barbara
