This grotty and unloved multi-storey carpark was part of the old St James Centre in #Edinburgh and used to be one of my favourite spots to wander about with my camera. It was a blight, sure, but I loved exploring in there all the same, and I really hate the shiny apparent acceptability of its replacement.

The grimy spiral access ramp of a multi-story carpark. Every surface is dirty concrete. A couple of arrow markings in the foreground are rather faded, and a hand-painted yellow 'slow' on a wall at the back of the spiral ramp is the only pop of colour. It's a flat, grey day, and the diffuse light does little to bring any dram to the flat, grey, empty concrete buildings in the distance.

A dim cool daylight is just-about visible in the distance, through the a barrier.
