Hi everyone,
this is a sort of revisit. I've seen a lot of repo's of this location, also at this forum!
so y don't want to spill your time with chitchat about all detaisl of this place. Think it is enough to tell you that this place is one of the best places to vitid when you are into Urban Exploring!!!:lol:

this place is located in a crowded place, quite a big city somewhere overseas. It has been used as a place to to business. downstaiirs there is a big central hall with BEAUTIFUL architecture. With your eyes half closed it is easy tho re-live the rich history. Nowadays the place feels somewhat desolated in that it forms an oasis in its crowded surroundings.
At days the place is not crowded with photographers (about 15 at the time we were inside..) one can hear the traffic in the distance. wonderfull.
at the first floor there are smaal officies at one side, and luxuous officies at the other side. All of the rooms are completely empty. I have seen pictures of rooms woth furnuture in it, but they are all gone....
On Dutch and belgian forums it is told that the CDC will soon be renovated: the only evidence of that are the empty rooms, the removed wooden floor in the centre hall and some scaffolds outside. But not much has changed...

Anyway: this site is one of the most popular urbex-places in west-Europe nowadays..

first some pictures from the famous and often photographed centre hall:

thanks for wathing:
As i want to improve my photography techniques I like advices!
and sorry if i misspelled any words etc. I am not english...;)
 
Thats brilliant :)

And dont worry about the odd mis-spelled word, it was still perfectly understandable.
 
Well you need to forgive him because he come from Manchester his grasp of the English language is proabably not as good as yours
 
Love lookin back over your shots after I've been. Even using a tripod, mine were nowhere near as sharp. Still loving these man!
 
I think I've reached the limits of my lenses sharpness. In a well lit environment, on a tripod, iso 100, on timer, I still wouldn't get them as sharp as this. Do you mind me asking why camera / lens you use?
 
slow resopnse from my side.. sorry for that :)\

I use a canon EOS 20D. of course a tripod.
and the standard lense used in this pics is a sigma 28-70 mm lense. fixed lens opening (f- value) of 2.8.
That makes it a lense ideal for bad light circumstances. I am able to use ISO 100 (and almost endless shuttertimes. LOL!

But I have to admit I used Photoshop to process the photo's...
