Title: Chapter 1 Assignment - Architecture Post by: goldcoastgolfer on October 17, 2011, 01:53:48 AM Hi all,
Just started having an interest in photography and picked up the exposure book as one of a few to start understanding photography better. I'm afraid we don't have too many interesting buildings on the Gold Coast so I thought I'd choose something a little different. The photos below are of a building that has been abused to the point of needing to be demolished. However the owner refuses to do something with it for some reason. Once upon a time, it was actually quite an attractive building. I thought the overcast sky was appropriate for the mood. Photos were taken with my wife's Panasonic Lumix FZ35 on full auto.
