forgotten tragedy

Taken at early morning in the bedroom of a old mansion which is abandoned for over 40 years and owns a sad history. A unique moment in my life I will never forget!

I love this mood...makes me feel something...Actually it reminds me of my childhood house which I have my best diaries in it...thanks for giving me such an excellent moment and chance for reviving my memories...
PS: I'd love to know more about exif information...and did you use a tripod?

Sven Fennema Thank you so much Siavash, very great to hear that!
These are 4 exposures, manually blended together, all taken in ISO 100 - I made a simple braketing and added one very dark exposure for the window area.
And yes, tripod cause I had very long exposure times of > 5 seconds

Siavash manually blend means you didn't use HDR technique?

do u usually bust the doors open to get in..or are those doors just simply open all the time for photo hunters like yourself?

magnificent work...like always!

Sven Fennema Thanks Andu!
I NEVER bust ANYTHING - Either it's open or I have to go, I never never never break something, and also I don't do places which aren't really abandoned, I'm not a criminal!

ANDU i understand ...what type of equipment did u use to catch this scene?
