Once I got into the building I was a little dissapointed, it was kind of boring, just broken glass. All the furniture had been taken out. I was still hoping it'd have all the shelving or chip fryer.

It was a pain to shoot as the windows were so dusty and it was late in the day, they were blown out very easily.

CC welcome.

Image #2 is a stand out for me. Just love the shadowed detail of Open Days on the floor although would have liked it to be shot a little wider to fit in all of the shadow. Great colours too!

1, 2 & 5 I like. I'm not too keen on the 2 smaller pano style shots, even though you can see what they are they don't have any real feeling attached to them. Like Kate though the second one stands out as the best for me, it conveys a feeling of sadness and makes you wonder what it was like in years past.

Yes I like number 2 as well. The theme seems to be the case of "cornbeef on rye...hold the butter, hold the mustard, hold the rye, hold the cornbeef....hold the deli. You know, this is maybe something the governor of the reserve bank should look at....small business in oz may not be doing as well ,as he thinks.

I agree about #2 being the winner here. In addition to what Kate said about "Open Days", this is the one image that tells the whole story, kind of with an irony twist :)
