these two trees make it too symetric, i would prefer one of them cut down (or may be just taken from different angle :)

I can't really explain it, but it looks like one of those old photos taken in the 1890's you would find in an old book. I just like it. well done.

I'm thinking maybe...too much contrast. It just seems a little harsh. Good composition and choice of subject though.

cool bldg maybe a little too much with the contrast effect tho it does add to the abandoned look

I really like the starkness of this image - makes it very interesting. I probably would hae cropped a little more on the left - or better yet, outside the challenge maybe clone out the building behind so you can keep the stairs. Beautiful detail on the building. 6

Nice interpretation of the challenge. I find the photo to be a little on the dark side and a bit to much USM. That is not a bad thing tho because I find it adds a certain uniqueness to this photo. The trees in the front are very distracting and altho the photo itself doesn't suggest abandoned it is above average from what I have seen in this challenge. I just noticed as well that it appears to be off level but that could be the angle of the shot. either way well done and good luck in this challenge.

Great composition. Your choice for making it a B&W was a wise choice.
Well Done!

Good choice for BW, but perhaps a bit over darkened? Also, I'm not convinced this place is "abandoned", maybe they just took a vacation in the Canary Islands. Good luck.
