Arson... What's the point? I read a story in a national newspaper last year, that told of an arson attempt at a disused industrial building - resulting in the seemingly accidental blazing death of the perpetrators. I laughed.

If indeed, there's any symbology behind this, then it's very sinister image. ie: What could the pit symbolize? Submission to evils such as suicide? Self harm? I dunno, maybe I'm reading too much into it, but if the patients were as disturbed as is to be believed, then.....

That's pretty poignant.

Must've been frustrating to have to walk ALL THE WAY up to the top, only to be faced with - - - no door!

Sorry man, I know I'm getting carried away with these comments - but this shot is pretty f***ing tremendous also. Yeah. Autumnal colours, cobalt sky, whispy clouds, menacing perspective of buildings facade. Come on.

There are, I guess, varying degrees of dereliction, based on many qualities, but principally - how untouched the environment is, and how much time has passed. With that in mind, this shot looks f***ing great!
