    where is this ? I MUST know ?
    I have a rather uncontrollable fetish for abandoned places.....

    Will repay you in beer/money/camera kit/small children....

    Hey Matt, small kids sound really juicy, but people frown upon that - closest we're legally allowed is ordering a baby chicken ;-)

    The Gas Works in Joburg, next to Igoli Gas and Liebermann Pottery - do you know the area?

    You kinda have to sneak in as it is an abandoned location and apparently 'illegal' cos of the danger involved. Chat to the owner of Liebermann - he can be difficult, but smile kindly, and promise to go look at his wares and possibly even buy something.

    I'm equally taken by urban decay, so if you know of places that are worth sharing, let me know. If you or any others here want to go on a jaunt, I really am itching to shoot derelict buildings in downtown Joburg

    @barnardinho awesome...thanks very much.
    I'm always keen to jaunt around town. Give me a call whenever.

    I do know a place I'd like to go back to sometime...will keep you posted.

  7. Daz

    Sensational shot. Love it. Love the treatment & grain. Lightroom 3 or Photoshop?

  8. Daz

    @Matt: The location is a stone's throw away from the roof top near Sentech Tower where some fabulous Jozi and Constania Kloof sunrises/sunsets can be had. Probably worth making it a shoot at some stage.

  9. barnardinho

    @Daz - Thanks. It was Photoshop. Prior to this shoot I was a bit of a purist re over-Photoshopping my images. At times went overboard, but have again reverted to Lightroom as my main digital darkroom tool and use PS if I really need to.

    Re Sentech tower - are you saying you can get us access?

  10. barnardinho

    @Matt - let's make a plan. Monday is a public holiday that I have no plans for. You - and anyone else - keen to get together?

  11. Matt

    @barnardinho sounds like a plan...drop me an email with your details
