Description
Time ago I've seen a shot of this structure in the gallery of a friend.. Roberto.. I've received an SMS from him this morning.. then.. :)
Hi Roby :) (I know sometimes he browses the gallery like a ghost.. ;) )

Built for grandeur, became decrepit. Evokes thoughts of failed dreams. Excellent image and great title.
Luv this one very much, the b&w, IMHO, is an excellent election, for the 3D guys a dream. Gets my V
Well composed! And excellent subject...
Ok..ok.. Thank you :)) I'm waiting Michelle's comment about this ;P
the dark mood is befitting, and hauntingly sad, yet beautiful!!!!
Agree with everyone! Looks unreal and amazing!
Excellent shot, very nice this stairway in decay
I see why you like this structure... full of ratto textures and with a rich historical look, not to mention all the wonderful windows and doors! Will we see more of this unique place? I hope so. :)
Oh Ale....my comment is not so important....but I'm honored that you value my opinion. This is an exceptional image....as a record of history and artistically. I love old architecture, there is a connection to our history in them, and sometimes you can only imagine the lives it held in it... It looks as if it were once mighty and grand, now it is sad and neglected, waiting for someone to give it love.... The B&W here is fantastic...beautiful tones...as always wonderful work. :~) Now I feel very nostalgic......I can see that Matt (RA) thinks the same as I...
Just a shadow, a shell of something it once was... A ghost, almost like Roby, indeed. I love it and I'm happy to see it dedicated to our friend...
Wonderful image, as all have said...it reminds me of Don Quixote and his windmills as well...
Seriously, I think you should frame these and sell them. Or hang them up in your home so people ask you who took the picture! And then you have a conversation piece!
Not forgotten...the door can be...re-opened. Friend's are not lost ...Phantoms can come to Life again..we can be Reborn..and...Ratto..wonderful :)
kewl shot
mi piace molto ma preferirei vedere di piu`
almost like a staged prop- the railing just hanging there- sad but wonderful all the same :]
What a melancholy atmosphere! You've captured it extremely well! Very thoughtful posting, Ale! Hi Roberto, we're missing you!!! Hugz
It'd make a good 3D image... Lol.
Thanks Ratto for the great photo and the inspiration. I tried to recreate this image, my attempt is titled Failed Dreams.
superb pic. You've captured just the right moment and lighting for this structure. And doing it in b&w is quite appropriate. My only request... tell more about the building itself! Where is it? What is it (or was it)?
