Overnighting West Park is not so much fun. Don't think of doing it unless you need all day and the morning light to shoot. Dragging yourself through the tunnels is bad enough; doing it with only a draughty room on the other side is worse. When the owls start moaning and the building starts creaking, keeping you awake, it becomes a little bit dark.
The upside is that as soon as the sun breaks the sky you have the whole place to run around in. And it is beautiful. It's got to be one of the most interesting sites in Western Europe at the moment... but it is getting ruined FAST. So go now or be damned. As a side note once I woke up the navigation was relatively easy... no hassle and I got to see the one thing I was after and got out without a hitch. again. good luck or pure karma? either way it was enjoyable. These shots are ok but not so good as the other ones I did, which were on film. [and i didn't take them all yesterday.. I've been there three times in the last week]
