Love all of that kinda thing.... desolate places that once were inhabited or used by people and now nature is gradually taking control.

Yes love it and have taken many a photograph

Yeah, something about it is attractive, it's strange

Have you?? Will you let us see some?

James, have you looked at some of the photos on that site? Some of them give me the shivers!

It's therapeutic for me in a way: to see that we're just a tiny piece of the great power of life on Earth, you know? That eventually we have to succumb to it's force. Plus I think that buildings in general are monstrocities and would much rather see a field or a wood than something created by man.

No, will do though.

I'll have a look through what I have. I also have an online pal who loves that stuff and will check out if he's fine with passing on links

K. :thumbs:

I get what you mean, in a way, its similar to looking at old ruins, except these arent so old, it's like a view of what the world will be like once were gone, the Earth will forget us

But what was it about ancient architecture that made them so beautiful? You don't see ugly castles or tombs or whatever. Have we become lazy or just apathetic towards the beauty of nature, creating rotten looking things all the time?

He kinda breaks the law to get his pics so need to ask him before I spread info :D

Hahaha.. ok :)

ive been looking at the pics on that site for the past hour its ****ing amazing! i want to do something like that but im too scared not of the police or anything of ghosts :eek:

Yeah, once you start looking at them, you can't stop.
I think if I did it, it would have to be with quite a few others.. feel a bit safer from the ghosts then. hahah

Some beautiful photos on that site Lee. Think they'd mind if we posted some of our favs on here?

I love anything to do with the Titanic Thomas.. but it's a different feeling of sad when I see photos of it. It's not just surrounded by death, but by tragedy too, unlike a hospital, you know?
I'm planning on going to Poland next year and feel whilst there, I should really visit Auschwitz, but I'm not sure if I could! I'd imagine it must be an overwhelmingly sad and poignant place to visit!

Oh I hadn't thought of that! I've been posting photos and links! Och, no, I'm sure they wouldn't mind!

What is sad about Auschwitz?

They obviously get into these places illegally, right? They're hardly tourist attractions anyway!

Thomas!!
It was a Nazi concentrarion camp used for murdering Jews during the second world war.

Yeah.. they mostly break in.

Well, they were trespassing, so by that definition they can't claim copyright on the material they gathered from the place, including any photography.

Ok, that was waffle, but it sounded logical enough, right? lol
