West Park - Nov 2010 - The black and white set

[randomnut]

Ok so I wasn't going to post this up here, what with the deluge of other west park reports recently.

This trip started out as an excuse to meet up with some old exploring buddies, check out west park for one of the final times, and play around with my new nikon d7000.

I came away pretty impressed with the results, so if anyone's interested, here they are

Very moody shots indeed..makes a change actually from the regular shots we see.

The B&W seems to highlight the decay in a more sad & eerie way, which I find suites the site well. Thanks for sharing.

Ahhh. These must be some of the best WP shots I've seen on this site. Liking the radio. Thanks a lot

 

[ShellyDuckDuck]

Seeing WP in black & white definately makes it look more of a scarey eerie place-luv the pics!

Great set, the B&W gives it a real nice feel.

If you happen to have any of those in appropriate desktop wallpaper resolutions I'd love a link. Awesome photos dude.

Beautiful B+W set. D7000 seems to be working well

This place looks lovely. I wish I could see it before it gets knocked/burnt/redeveloped

I second what Lazarus said, also those are some of the most atmospheric shots i've ever seen of West park!

Did a solo explore here today (just got back). Was good to re-visit but a lot more windows seem to have been boarded up so thank god I took a torch! Didn't get decent enough pics to bother making a new report about but will probably be back there next Sunday.

How is the fence coming along that's being erected along the Christchurch Road side?

 

[0xygen]

I didn't see it - didn't even know there was one being built. I went in off the footpath next to the drive entrance.
