Once stood gleaming in the night
Where now
There’s just the rubble in the hole”

One upon a time this was my local hospital. After lots of fighting the battle to save it was lost and a near by town was rewarded with becoming the central hub of hospital services in our area. It is a long sad story of government under funding and local politics but the result is that what was once a busy hospital as been replaced with a small clinic style building and the rest of the sight is being cleared to make way for new housing from which some developer is going to make a lot of money
Definitely a monochrome shot – suits the news as well as the shot
This is a very strong image. The B&W works perfectly.

Intriguing shot, especially in B/W !

Such a sad sight – but an excellent black and white composition.
I work in construction (as an engineer) and sometimes destruction is part of construction. I never enjoy seeing things I like go away and more often than not, these days, feel like they are replaced with things I do not like 🙁
