Vila Real de Santo António - Through a hole

Old tuna canning plant.
The canning industry in the Algarve died with the absence of fish. From the 1950s onwards there was a downward trend in catches, and by 1971 the tuna fisheries had all closed and so did the canning factories.

Obrigada Lothar, I had a doubt if it suited because it was specified "no windows" on the week's theme for SSC group...

You solved the depth of field issue by setting up further back. I might have cropped the picture a bit to make the landscape behind become more prominent in the frame.

Xata ^club has replied to Bruce Dean (Puchinpa… ^club

I tried it and had the impression that it looses part of the mystery.... and gained in blur... always difficult to make the right choice, but what is the right choice, LOL?

The view through the walls is fantastic and mysterious. Also the 3. PiP: A wonderful contrast between the walls of the destroyed window and the wood in the background - a perfect composition!
