Doesnt look like Yuma, El Toro?

Irvine, CA. I'm back in California to take care of some stuff and figured I'd take those pictures when I saw the opportunity.

My sense of exploration got the better of me tonight on the way home. Had to check out the abandoned Franklin Mint. Im sure some people know it.





















All picks taken with android phone. Going back soon with the real camera.

This old gas station was fixed up and used in the upcoming movie about Hank Williams. I cropped my Trailblazer out of the original pic, as it was just
too freakin' clean for the thread.

Any time I see something like that my brain screams PAINTBALL!!!!!!!!!

I just about wet myself when I pulled into the urban ops facility at Ft. Lewis. I was there to do some wiring.
I'd love to charter a group to go to Pripyat for a weeks worth of paintball (and a lifetimes worth of rads). Okay, maybe 3 days worth of paintball.

More decay, but in the old Soviet.

There are thousands of abandoned buildings and works all over the old Soviet.
See http://www.EnglishRussia.com for images or http://www.abandoned.ru


WARNING, the images are stark and frankly, addictive. Don't say I didn't warn you.

That would definitely be El Toro then. Right off of Trabuco Canyon rd. I was stationed there in 1997.

Monument Valley, AZ
June 2009

I think the low clouds with the dim morning light created a nice spooky atmosphere.

Thought I'd try my hand at a little photography. Always wanted to do this and this thread gave me the extra push. Loaded up the family and went in search of some broken down buildings. Sorry if the size of the photos are obnoxious, haven't completely got the hang of posting pics yet...

I went to Malin Head last weekend.

It's the most northerly point in the island of Ireland & is very beautiful in a bleak way.
Whilst there I took some pictures using my camera phone. Apologies for the quality.

[velojym]

Camera phones are getting better and better. Heck, I usually leave my bigger, more expensive Canon at home unless I'm specifically on a photo run. The 8mp cam in my phone (my pics in this thread, for instance) gets me some *very* nice photos, and beats everything I have at home except for the EOS. Ain't that a kick?
I still love the SLRs, though. Lots more creative options.

[velojym]

Scooba, MS. The town isn't really dead, just the old downtown area. This'd be a great set for a post-apo flick.

I really like your work. Especially your B&W images. Just beautiful composition, use of light and that great contrast is perfect for this theme (post apocalypse). Thanks so much for sharing.
