Interesting looking place and I like the tones too. Cyanotype? The bit blown out in the top left can be brought down a bit easily enough as it drags my eye over to it.  Nice shot though, I do like the urban decay theme in shots.

Damn. I missed that top left part - was too busy concentrating on the blownout highlights in part of the wall. I'll have a look at it.

I didn't exactly press a button called cyanotype. The photo was desaturated in RAW and then I planked a gradient map on top of it, reduced the opacity of the gradient map layer and changed the layer style to hard light or something. The colour is from the gradient map I used which I got free from one of the Photoshop mags at some stage.

Location is Blackrock baths which you can get to via a footbridge over the DART line near Blackrock DART station. I was down there to have a looksee this morning - going back very shortly to have more of a looksee when the tide is actually out...it was full on when I got there this morning. It's long been abandoned. It's not the only abandoned baths there - I was also looking at the ones in Dunlaoghaire but could not get parking there to investigate further this morning.

I have something in mind for these locations which is why although urban decay isn't my usual style, I'm recce-ing there at the moment.
