Default Abandoned or derelict

Went for a walk with my camera early this morning in to the local boating area (Leigh on Sea) - planned on being out for an hour at most but ended up shooting for about 3 and going to places I haven't been to since I was a small child

This is a set of abandoned boats and buildings which were far from my original "target"

These are really nice shots. I would like to see the last one in b/w and high contrast.

This is a great series sheldon with all pictures having instant appeal. I agree most have seen better days but that doesn't mean we won't see them on Ebay.
I agree with heaterguy, about the potential for B+W conversion, and I think the third would work particularly well.
Good job buddy
