The fact that the place is a mystery actually opens the mind to fantasies about the reasons to the decay - and it's might be much more interesting than the actual dull story that may be the real reason for the decay. That's apart from the place becoming such a lovely place to take photos of 😁
The whole place radiate an aura of " out of place" feeling - the ivy coming into a window, the bicycle outdoors, the place itself looking massive yet lonely. But somehow the whole thing works together and your photos deliver the effect - they are a bit dream like and like in a dream- strange things can work along together unexpectedly. We all experience such experiences in our life- two people who are friends when they are completely different, salty caramel to those preferring food metaphors, etc. Every one can point something in his life that shouldn't work but actually does.
Thanks for the really lovely pictures. The first is my favorite, it's even fit for the art series!
