Disused rail.

If you thought Connaught was boring, theres something wrong with you Nebula!!

Nope, nought wrong with me. Just not my bag. It just seemed to be a tunnel. No more, no less. I took another 2 pictures down there. One was blurred, the other is the same as the first one, but with me in it.
 
Me and M02W had a ball down there, its where we realised the it fun we could have with Long Exposure. Its a great Tunnel although not a long one, but it has loads of character and Architectural style. Everyones different and has an opinion, but you can hardly call it boring!:)
 
Well, I did. This is what we did earlier in the day...

Makes this look a little dull.
 
I really enjoyed the Connaught as it was my first explore in a disused tunnel as well as playing about with long exposure photography - I've been cheeky and added a couple of our pics below.

Love the look of the hospital you went to - lights still working? How cool!!! You got some great images in ther - particularly the operating table with lights on.

Here's something from our trip to the Connaught Tunnel:

Nice shots there. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed it, but it wasn't up to the standards of the days previous location...

That was a good day mate!!
 
haha, thanks. Well, I'm off now, I have some stuff planned for this evening... :mrgreen:
 
Nice pictures. Do you know what the purpose of the regular brick arches is? They don't seem to be supporting anything - possibly they're there to help retain the side walls? I'll look out for this
 
Is that part of the line that was destined to be preserved and opened back up with steam? or was that a different line in London?

It's being brought back into service by Cross Rail very soon - when we went, we walked right into their works yard - lol
