Thank you everyone for submitting their photos last week. This week's challenge is to submit a photo that you took "close to home", in other words, close to where you live. It could be in the same city, and the closer the better!

2018 Wolken RB 6351

Sunlight is breaking through dark clouds - just before a big thunderstorm approached.

The photo was taken from the root-top terrace of my flat. So: Distance from home is 0 m.

 

Canon EOS 7D mark II, 73 mm, f/5, 1/80 sec, ISO 800

Nikon D800 Nikon AF-S 16-35mm f/4 G ED VR @ 16 mm. ISO 50 f/22 30''

Behind my house there was a dismissed (and beautiful) concrete structure built in the '920s as a wharehouse for a Klinker plant.
Area was semiabandoned and poppies were growing beautifully, despite it was placed in the center of my town.

Now the area is under cleaning and the structure will become an auditorium.

100 mt from home.
