Old Haunts

This is a picture of a place lived near as I grew up. It is actually the front of an old Bear Pit that was part of Leeds Zooalogical Gardens in the late 19th Century. of course, when I was a child growing up, it was at times a castle, a hiding place, a haunted house (ahh the imagination of a child!) Sadly it has been much neglected for the last 30 years and stands folorn, a relic from the past. I went to photograph it and decided to try capture it with an Ifra Red effect which I think works really well with it.

I am considering re-visiting my old stomping grounds as a child with my camera and capturing what remains of them and perhaps posting them here.
