Critique Welcomed Lost Place Military Area Jüterbog

The old military area in Jüterbog is one of the oldest military areas in Germany. It was found in 1862 and used until 1994. Since 1994 there was no military use on this area anymore. To day in this area you can find a large number of rare animals and plants. But you also can find the traces of the military use.

I absolutely adore lost military installations with their strange, other worldly atmospheres. I also love the fact that you have maintained a good sense of perspective.
 
That is a fine set of images, well done. I get the feeling that having been abandoned by man, nature is preparing to reclaim it. If it is left alone I can imagine a young pine forest there in 50 years time.
