Absolutely stunningly beautiful photographic essays. Truely inspiring stuff.

The focus is on asylums and decay, which will appeal to many of us !!!!

This one is about 40 minutes from my house.
My own pics are over at UER, under US, New York, Tahawus, Macyntire redevelopment.
I've corresponded with him, he really despises "explorers". He's and artiste and feels the explorer term doesn't apply to him.
The place is vandalism free. But then it's in the middle of nowhere.

MGP takes some nice pics.

Pitty about his personality or lack thereof.

I tried emailing him quite a while back but didn't get a reply. This is one of the sites that inspired me to start exploring.

I had a lengthy discussion with the guy; but I intentionally hid my motives. In this case it was the National lead mine, where he trespassed, as did I, to get the shots.
In many cases he gained permission, especially in the Utica State Psych hospital. That place is a fortress, and right in the city.
I knew what he was like when he mentioned "I ought to get to NL soon before the vandals and "Urban Explorers" get there." Sorry, but what is he?
