Hello Romano,
It makes a fine photographic subject this old abandoned mill captured here under a sympathetic ambient light. I like very much the detail and colours to be observed in the still attractive brickwork.

Hello Romano
the sort of place that I find irresistible as a location. There is so much character and a tinge of sadness about deserted places like this. Love the warm brickwork which contrasts so beautifully with the cold of the deep blue sky.

Wonderful!

Enjoy your Sunday - B.

Hi Romano
as Brian states, there's a bit of sadness to this building, the mood is truly felt.
but thats the case with abandoned buildings isn't it, and i enjoy that.

an excellent subject to explore inside and outside.
sweet lighting sets the tone too.
cheers

Ciao Romano
Old and abandoned buildings can be so strongly attractive as your excellent example proves again. The brick work of the old mill is beautiful and the derelict mood of the scene is palatable.
have a great Sunday
Daniel

Ciao Romano ,
Quel beau vestige de l'иre industrielle , qui mйriterait assurйment d'кtre conservй , et pour cela , entretenu avant qu'il ne tombe en ruine . Joli contraste de la brique rouge avec le ciel bleu .
Amicalement

Hi Romano
A beautiful old industrial building and as sad as it is to see it in ruin. It makes an ideal subject for a photographer. The light warms the building up very nicely and it's a great presentation on the blue sky. I would imagine in darkness though this wild be a very spooky place.
Best wishes
Noel

Hello Romano,
A fine photo with superb colours, contrasts and sharpness.I hope this fine old industrial building will not be destroyed or too neglected. So many have been beautifully converted into hotels, shopping malls, conference centres or art galleries. I like that much better than the total decay.
Kind regards,
Gert

Ciao Romano
eccellente qualitа, il cielo blu e la struttura in mattoni si completano perfettamente.
Un esempio di periferia abbandonata come si trovano in ogni cittа e che sarebbe opportuno abbattere o rivalutare, ma ci sono sempre troppi intoppi per tutto.
Buona domenica
Carlo

On est trиs loin des lieux visitйs par les touristes.Un petit cфtй de Rome que l'on ne connait pas mais qui est aussi trиs beau.Une belle vieille usine qui a encore de jolies formes.

Bon dimanche

Ciao Romano,

This is a very striking photograph, mainly on account of the wonderfully bright light which illuminates the frontage of the old building, making it stand out spectacularly against the deep indigo sky above.

I love your simple and imposing composition. The light and colours are fabulous and the details and sharpness exquisite.

Beautiful!

Kind Regards,

John.

Ciao Romano,
Bella composizione architettonica della vechia industria
chi sa quante persone hanno lavorato qui, pecato che si abbandonano cosi questo tipo di struture, sicuramente poteva diventare un musseo industriale.
Buona domenica sera e tanti casi auguri per buon Natale.
Costantino

Such buildings are industrial monuments, some very interesting, and I think that it could be prepared to visit by tourists, these old machines in factories they are usually interesting, excellent photo

Ciao Romano
Mi disoiaccie, ma devo scrivere in inglese, per esprimer mi meglior.
I feel attracted to old industrial buildings like this one. There is a special atmosphere in these places where many used to come and earn their bread in an era that now has ended. I like the POV you've chosen; it looks as if the bush to the right has taken a hold on to the building to tear the wall down; nature taking back what belongs to her. The blue sky makes a brilliant contrast to the red tiles. The whole composition is clear and simple and highly eastetic.
Cheers Frank

Hello Romano

It really has a story to tell, this old factory building, hasn`t it. If walls could speak. It looks as if you had to climb a little to get this perfect POV. A very clear picture with splendid details. I hope they will find another use for this fine, old building. Excellent! Thanks.

Wish you a happy Christmas celebration.

Greetings, Erling

La version large permet d'apprйcier encore les dйtails de ce bвtiment a l'abandon, bien cadrer entre le vert et le bleu
Belle rйalisation, nettetй et sublime lumiиre
Belle journйe

Hello Romano.
This one caught my attention because the light on the bricks is magnificent. Without that light the picture would probably look very different and less interesting. The sharpness is excellent and the colours very pleasing.
Excellent image.
Kind Regards, Ann
