By now you know how much I like going for drives far away from the crowded places, to explore the forgotten, abandoned, and dilapidated artifacts of our world. This past week I have “discovered” 2 new places to explore (this weekend!), as well as this place, which caught my eye in a strange way.
This is an infared shot, taken on a cloudy day (what else was there this year!?). I didn’t have any expectations of how it would work out, but I knew that the contrast of the “smooth” looking sky and the cracked texture of the debris needed to be central.
The other 2 places I stumbled upon (not literally thank goodness!) on first inspection, to be good subject matter for Halloween photos, and since the full moon is on Novmeber 2nd, a mere 2 days off Halloween eve, if it’s a clear night, a little “almost full moon” photography in these abandoned places should be very coooool indeed. All I need now is a way to get my 12-24 mm lens repaired – the one that got squashed when I took my tumble…
SHAMELSS ADVERTISING: The PPOC Manitoba Image Salon is on October 17th at Tec Voc High School – come out to see some truly kick as* images. If you think my images are good, you MUST see the rest of the show. It’s FREE and you’ll be MORE than entertained by the Judges – makes Simon Cowal look like Mahatma Ghandi!!! Oh! the repartee!!! Laugh, outrage, rant, it’s all there.
