Thought I would start a new thread because these photos really don't belong anywhere else. Let's share some photos of some old decrepit buildings whether in ruin or still in use. I really like the textures of old peeling paint and weathered wood. Throw in some metal and glass and you get all kinds of possibilities.
These three pictures are from a local grainery that is actually still in business, despite the rough look of the place. I have some other photos from the same place that have been posted in the "Industry" thread and forgive me, but I'm going to re-post one of them here so it can be with like photos. I'm also experimenting with the Arista film.
The first (the repeat) is on 4x5 Arista Edu Ultra using an 8 1/4" Wollensak Velostigmat II in a Betax shutter at f/32. I really like the old wavy glass in the windows. They make for some cool reflections.

This second one is also on Arista using a Nikkor 300M @ f/45.

The window panes below are also on Arista, but shot with a 210 Apo Symmar at f/22.
