This book contains a collection of stunning fine art images by award winning photographer Colin Ross. The images are at once fascinating and frightening,tell the story of places that were once busy centres of other people’s lives. The exploration of forgotten homes, schools, factories and hospitals offer a nostalgic view of the lives left behind and show the vulnerability of man against the powers of mother nature. Listen for the echoes, recognise the faded glamour and elegance and acknowledge the hardship and yes, even the despair.
