These images of an old vacant building from Tallinn are from ten years back, but now I decided to share them with you. The building itself has quite a history, I am sure, but I do not know it , having served different purposes over the years before being left vacant. The windows, the patterns of peeling paint, weathered wood, and the play of light and shadows.
These windows are my entry for this week for Ludwigs Monday Window challenge, a perfect opportunity to showcase the timeless beauty and mystery captured within these frames.




Timeless beauty, indeed. So many windows and that beautiful green color…such a shame it is in disrepair.
These buildings are a treasure and you photographed them so well Ritva!
Beautiful photos and color contrast!
Itt is sad that there are so many old abandoned and neglected buildings around. Why is it that we find things to be useless and toss them aside? Is there lack of will, of imagination, of resources? Those old places are nostalgic, fascinating, and worthy of another opportunity to shine. Yet so often that potential goes wanting. We turn to “new”. Answers fail me …
There is a haunting beauty to these old abandoned places, Ritva.
Might be old but still interesting and beautiful. 😊
It may be decaying but this still is a beauty for photographers, don’t you think so?
