Malaga Sugar Factory, More Photos


The abandoned factory is surrounded by a field with grazing horses. On my second visit to the building I was joined in the vast machine hall by about 15 of the fine beasts.


Manger


Most of the windows and doors are bricked up, ideal canvases for graffitti artists.

Abandoned Sugar Factory, El Tarajal, Malaga, April 2010

The following photos were taken using a Bronica SQ-Ai camera with 50mm lens and tripod. Photos shot at F22 with Ilford HP5 400 ASA film developed in Ilford Perceptol.
Many thanks to Vincent de Vries (http://www.holandaluz.com/) for the loan of the camera!

Inside the main machine hall. Horses graze inside and outside the building, this gives it a really special atmosphere.

Malaga 'Backs'





























Stone Stair, Port of Malaga

































Construction Site, Calle Granada, Malaga

These are older photos taken in 2008 but are the start of a series of photos to show the 'backside' of Malaga. Abandoned buildings, construction sites, etc. If it works out the idea is to make an exhibition together with Phil Magee who has fantastic street photos, in colour, of Malaga. The contrast of two styles but one city could make a great show.
