I went to this location to photograph the abandoned building, which was a former print shop. I found a broken window on then end of the building and was amazed at what I found inside. Unfortunately that same window limited me as to what I could shoot. Thought about trying to get inside but figured no need to get arrested for a challenge plus the place is infested with pigeons and a respirator would probably be warranted for health reasons.

Thanks for all the comments.

I was wondering why you didn't move the rolling ladder. A night in jail wouldn't had been worth it. Great Shot!!!!!

Lovely location, looks like an opportunity for great shots. This one does not work for me - the processing on this one is way heavier than I can handle.

definitely gives the feeling of an outdated piece of equipment that has been left behind for "bigger and better". For all we know, this whole building was the old firehouse and is as abandoned as the truck it still houses.
biggest drawback for the abandoned theme is the wood in the lower left corner - it looks too 'new' to have been abandoned with the building in the state it's in - it looks like it's about to receive an overhaul to the premesis.
still, a great image for the building/truck in feeling their disrepair/abandonment

great location! However a little more contrast would make it even better.
