3rd place
Composition of Decomposition by gr8fulted

Nikoneer: That lower chimney that is tilting away from the structure appears to be a material printed with "bricks"... while everything else is in a massive state of dereliction, the edges of the chimney are arrow-straight, with no chipping, and the color of the bricks are consistent. If they were real, they could never be held up merely by a pair of 2x4's sticking out from the side of the house. Appearances tell me the rooftop chimney is made of the same material... tin, maybe? Whatever the case, the more modern additions--the chimneys and the No Trespassing and Private Property signs--don't remove any of the charm; they complement it. That gorgeous landscape behind it doesn't hurt, either.

Dereliction at Grove Rake Mine by Dunstickin

bfrank: This is about as derelict as they come, Bob. I doubt you will find any rest in that restroom. Good contest entry.

J_E_F: Reminds me of the scene from the film "Trainspotting"... Good to see you placed Bob.

GomekFlorida: Reminds me of this entry of mine of my house years after we moved. I have pictures of the bathroom but decided not to share but it was in a similar state.
