 I'm not sure how "abandoned" the building is, yet if anybody lives in there, he's gotta have some serious suicidal tendencies. It looked like it would crumble if a bird landed on it. Anyway...

It was an awful choice to make between the color and B&W version. On one hand, it's one of those rare photo where I get some incredible colors, the blue of the sky with the red-orange of the bricks, and the white of the "nest". But on the other hand the B&W was giving a more serious feeling to the photo that suits the theme a little more.
