Abandoned by Lydia Sutcliffe
From when my father and I road tripped the whole of Louisiana, USA. We were driving all these back roads in tiny country towns, found this abandoned gem and I knew i had to take a photo of it. The brightness of the sky with the darkness and abandoned look of the photo really contrast each other.

I am a 26 year old who has constantly had a passion for photography and loved doing it for fun and now partially work. I did A & A2 level Cambridge photography exams and came first in the class for two years in a row, selling work picked out by my teacher. Now, at 26, my father gifted me his old Minolta camera, which I had never shot on, or had ever used film. Since then, I have been in love with film photography and am awaiting a new polaroid to come through also.

Such a breathtaking photograph. I love the contrast of an old, dark building against the bright and uplifting surroundings. Wonderful work
