Abandoned factory

Today I moved to an area where I could find great mechanisms.
I shot in the morning and the Sun strikes the walls too harshly.
May be I have to go back there in the evening when the Sun is not so strong or may be in a cloudy day. :wink
It is amazing that now that I shoot with the Canon 5D and start using the simple program called Lightroom my photos got better than before.
However, I am aware that the photos herewith can be improved.

1. In this one the reflection of the light on the ground illuminated the tubes very nicely enhancing their shapes. I used the big mass/volume in the foreground while focusing at the end of the tube.

2. Here you can clearly see what I mean about the Sun and it's position. The area where it strikes is burned and has no information.

3. A detail with a spider web. The light is good here because we can see it's reflection on the tab and tube while having a dark blurred background. Not bad photo.

4. It important to show a detail tacking advantage of the harsh light. It worked OK.

5. This is just a experiment to see what we can get - I should say - I can get from a little play with Lighroom. If you ask me I couldn't do it again.:wink
It is a very "modern" photo, very up date, like HDR or similar.
I noticed that Lightroom is amazingly simple to work with and returns very nice pictures.

6. The last but not the least: the same picture in B&W. Very powerful !
