Disused German Prison, Qingdao, China

Niepce

Hello everyone,

A few shots from Qingdao's (Shandong Province, China) disused German prison. Qingdao was occupied by Germany for about 20 years years at the beginning of the 20th century, and the prison is one of the landmarks left behind by the colonists. A spooky place... :uhoh

Very nice series! I especially like #8, #11, and #14, although I think #14 could do without the lightbulb.

I think I'd like #13 better if the focal point were in the center of the circle instead of in the front. The spiral leads my eye to the center where I would really like it to be in focus.

And nice conversions. I think most of these work better in B&W.

I rather like the spiral in your first post. Although the second is quite pleasing as well. In the first post, the focus is quite interesting to me.

Thank you for sharing these. The subject matter is of particular interest to me.
