The photos I took at Eastry I am very pleased with, although I wish I had spent more time inside looking at detail, rather than letting the fear get to me & spending a lot of time sat outside! Not only was Eastry scary due to the hospital furniture (beds, clinical room divider screens, etc), enclosed spaces & dark corridors, Eastry was a more dangerous place to explore than Chartham because of the state the building is in, collapsing floors, ceilings & staircases, etc.
I think the black & white photos are really effective for these images as it adds a sense of fear and shows the dark, dirty building in what I think is the best way possible.
Once again, like Chartham the building has gained a new purpose; an urban explorers paradise, a graffiti artists blank canvas or a playground for anyone who visits. This again shows me that there is beauty in decay.
