The camera never lies… Or does it !?!?…

Steely Solitude

A few more shots from the day spent exploring the abandoned steel mill… IMG_9762_2-2 s

The light on the day was pretty perfect, streaming through all the holes in the steel cladding of the buildings, and that was fortunate given the utter lack of lighting or power within the buildings themselves. It sure was extremely dark in places, which the shots belie. Sometimes the only way to focus was with the aid of torchlight.

IMG_9814_2-2 sLooking forward to the next trip, that’s for sure. Someday… soon… hopefully…

  4. Hey there! Another blog post! I think you’ve doubled last year’s total posts now ;-)
    I’m with Michaela – that puddle shot is wicked cool.
    Is a torchlight a flashlight, by the way?

  14. Lovely images – I’ve always wondered how to go about getting into abandoned buildings (legally!). :)

    • Lol… Legally isn’t always possible, unfortunately… Although where there’s a fence, there’s usually a hole!… ;)
