This is inside an abandoned car dealership. Not sure what the caged parts are about.

This is what you see first upon opening the back door.

And here is the door to a nearby abandoned shop.

2. Also Dublin City Centre, about 2 mins walk from our main street

This is just a really neat looking wall I found in a downtown back alley.

This was also found in a back alley way. It's actually an old rusted garbage bin.

This is another photo of the same garbage bin.

I haven't had nearly as many opportunities to photograph this stuff as I'd like, but here are three faves...
1. Eastern State Penitentiary

This cell block wasn't open for the tour, but the doorknob was missing from the heavy wooden door, and I stuck my camera's lens into the doorknob hole and got one of my favorite pictures from the prison.
2. Eastern State Penitentiary

I love the painterly look of the lightfall across this cell wall. The lamp is just enough of a focal point.
3. Community Hospital of Western Suffolk

Broken safety glass in the round viewing window of an emergency room door. Taken on my first-ever urban-ex trip.
Thanks for looking! :-)

This will be me, whoring my own stuff:



These are my favorite 3 (that I have taken) I have a couple from an abandoned distillery that I am going back to. The "light painting" concept had crossed my mind; but I have never done it... when I go back I am going to 're-do' a few. Thanks for looking!!!

Decay can be dynamic and strong even though it may appear to never quickly change.

Decay is about a change in state.

Decay reveals to us the future that is hidden.

Workspace:

X-Ray:

Shed:

i like the first one because it really give the picture the "creepy vibe" the place deserves.
the second picture was just a goof-around shot that turned out the be actually my favorite picture that i've taken inside an abandoned building.
i like the third one because it shows the comparison between old and new. that shed has been there for a long time, long before i was born, and yet i can only recall that sign being there only for a few months.

1. 
Dead rat found lying on the pavement of a large abandoned hospital complex in Cape Town, South Africa. Even the dead get abandoned.
2.
Incredible derelict architecture - what a waste.

That's a difficult decision indeed...
I decided for 3 pictures out of 3 different urbex series...

This was just a lucky find. I walked the street and saw through a fence what looked like an old parking garage. I turned out to be much more exciting than just a derelict carpark - but there was a car (or the remains of it) in beautiful sunlight... this was my first urbex site I discovered for myself.

I like this one for its realistic atmosphere... I learned that you can create a sinister atmosphere from a sunny afternoon in the garden if you know what to do in photoshop... but this one had this feeling already IRL (it is HDR and photoshopped but I feel it does capture the actual mood of that location)

Last but not least - the gearbox of the old machine we found in a derelict industrial site. I also found this site accidentally and there haven't been many urbexers before me. When I saw this machine I fell instantly in love with it - the cogwheels, rust oil and water - just perfect - I hope I could capture this in my pic.

This is from a huge arena for aquatic sport shows as well as concerts. its basically your standard stadium but cut in half and set on the water. The place closed down after a riot during a concert followed by hurricane Andrew (it's in Miami). The place became "structurally unsound" which of course means it's too dangerous for its intended 1500+ people, but a couple of graffiti artists, skate boarders and photographers is completely safe. But underneath the seating area there is a walkway right above the water and there is little to no light. Well I went below there during low tide. In this area I found a drainage pipe of some sort but oddly enough it had a telephone sitting right on top of it. (which was covered in barnacles because high tide brings the water up above this point)

This is from the same location. The first shot from its bowels and this right on top of it's head. As I mentioned before the place has become run by graffiti artists and skate boarders. The prime real-estate for all being the roof. The path to the roof is from the sound/lighting booth. Which is suspended (poorly) over the seats. The floors of said booth are falling out and a few attempts have been made to replace them with plywood but to much avail. From here you climb a small latter through a hatch. The roof is shaped in what I suppose are intended to be waves. to a skate boarder this translates to halfpipe. Graffiti artists like it because it's large impossible to get caught and highly visible from a distance. It had been a rainy morning so by the time a arrived there were algae infested puddles on the roof. In the puddles there were beer bottles all floating upside down. This seems like an extremely dangerous place to drink (especially if being used as a skate park) and the bottles seemed to mimic the potential fate they could case.

This I suppose is my own take on urban decay. The room is actually a small set I built and lit. I photographed it and then double exposed it with a model. The idea is largely based on social and emotional decay due to urban (or suburban) induced isolation.

This is one of my favourites, but it is not a photograph, it's part of an animated film from the 70's 'Allegro Non Troppo', this sequence is really poignant and pulls on the heart strings but it is beautifully drawn and realised
