On Urban Exploration
I went with a friend to this great old building that used to be a paper factory to take some pictures. We parked on the street and walked a block or so to go around the back of the building into the building. There are seven or eight floors, and of course the rooftop. We explored, looking at all the graffiti, the views from different windows, the light coming in through broken glass windows, spray paint cans scattered everywhere. The gates to the elevator shafts were broken, and looking down them? Scary!
I LIKE the urban decay pictures. I find them infinitely more interesting than the pretty pictures, but I do take those too. Here, though, are some pictures of things you would never see, because they are in a building you would not want to go into. But I did! There are a lot of other places I want to go to, but it isn't really easy to get someone to want to go with me. I would not go alone, just in case.
From the street, you can see inside other buildings, whole rooms left behind. You can see the appliances, beds, miscellany left behind. Pictures of that? Yes.....
