Hi Nick, i'm traveling to Poland soon, i hope to get photos as this one, i really like your pov and th B&W adds the dramatism that this place surely transmit.

Well done

Mario

Good photo.
Bad that it could happen.
I undestand it faces the way out, wich is a sign of hope.
Let us make a world where it doesn't happen anymore.

Striking. Been there recently, this photo lively confirms the feelings it evoked...

Hello Nikolaos,
A sad subject, but a very good shot with the rails that lead our eyes to the gate and the building. I like your usage of B&W and the black frame around the picture.
Regards, Brigitte

very nice shot, good choice with the B&W and a very moving picture well done

nick,
fantastic work. the use of black and white gives an idea of the desolation i'm told this place has. after reading many books on the subject, it's helpful to see a great photo of the place. The railroad ties summon mental images of the monotony of neverending labour.
thanks for sharing.
