What's Next? ~ My Own Theme #1


This building was to have shops, parking and condos in it. It sits in the middle of a town close to where I live. The construction was moving along very rapidly and then one day it just stopped. The builder ran out of money leaving behind this eyesore. Another sad sign of the times.

(I purposely have not added any clouds to this already gorgeous sky because it's been a long time since the sky looked like this!!)

  1. With a sky like that, who needs clouds? Sometimes less is more. :D

    Too bad about the building. It looks like it was going to be a nice one too.

  3. We had the same thing in Margate with two blocks of home units eight storeies high, then the cracks from the shonkry workmanship appeared. They have been "Fixed" but no-one is buying and I am sure they will be pulled down- Hopefully before they fall.

  4. That makes me sad - to start a beautiful building and then just stop. Hopefully someone finds another use for it! I agree, gorgeous blue sky!

  5. Sad because we know its probably just the tip of the iceberg. Your shot is great, and your judgment good in leaving the sky alone.

  6. Your photo is beautiful but the story not so much. I'm with you on the sky!

  8. Great shot and theme - and really a sign of the times, like you said.

    How awful to now have an eyesore, and no shops or other convenience to show for it!
