Remains of industry

Once upon a time, about 1931., famous Bata Shoe Company opened this factory near city of Vukovar in Croatia. This giant was one of the biggest European shoe factories, providing millions pairs of shoes each year. Can you even imagine how many people made first steps in those shoes? How many of them meet their first love while wearing them? How many even died in them? Nowadays, this factory is almost closed. Giant on knees, begging for mercy. Photo was taken on very hot June day with my #Zenit3M - this is maybe the only one reason that makes those photos nice.
