There is nothing that epitomizes the feeling of loss and dispair as the act of willful abandonment. Yet, so often it is that in these places of loss and sorrow that we "find" ourselves.

“Come away to a deserted place all by yourselves and rest a while.” For many were coming and going, and they had no leisure even to eat. --- Jesus to His disciples

Excellent shots, Jim. What is the story? A dam removed? A levee that burst?

#7, I too agree. Excellent shots, especially "Forgotten Port"! I think these would look fantastic in black and white also.

Beautiful! Color, comp, everything. What a contrast between the beauty of the shot and the despair fo the structure.

Pyro, I'm not sure what the story is here. This was the first time I've seen this place. It looks like there might have been a fire as the pillars are all charred and blackened. Also it looks as though there might have been an explosion as the beach is littered with broken brick and concrete. Just complete desolation and destruction.
