Abandoned Places

[stsinner]

I'd like to contribute-

This is an old school in my town. In a place like this, I like to think back about the many children who would come in out of the cold with rosy cheeks and hang their coats and mittens up and sit down to be educated.

The local animal shelter used the basement for a while until the fumes got to be too much from the place being boarded up and it being winter time.

I've never seen a heater like this huge thing on the ceiling of a closet in the basement, presumably for heating the floor above:

Some sites from around my town.

Nice work there, ST. :thumbup: That school kinda looks like my apt!! :lmao: Though I'm a bit cleaner..hehe.

Sorry I haven't been online...been without the net for a bit but my girlfriend got me the installation for Xmas. Woot! So, I'll be posting on this damn thread o' mine again, soon.

Keep this thread alive! :thumbup::thumbup:

I just came across this thread last night and I spent a majority of the night and most of this morning looking through all these amazing photographs.
You guys have some amazing shots on here and I'm truly inspired!!

I have a couple photo's of a church that I was TOLD was abandoned and haunted. Upon finding it, I realized that it really was not abandoned and I did not feel it was haunted either. Just some kids in town telling stories I'm sure. Anyway, here's some pictures from the church/cemetery anyway!

There's a few, more at http://www.flickr.com/photos/27987029@N07/

I have found that photobucket works better for posting photos.

Chiller, you're lucky as hell to get to shoot that old house.. It's like they just up and left... What a waste of a good pack of toilet paper...Or did you take that in with you? LOL.. Awesome shots.

Welcome to the forum SBC. If you are ever lacking for ideas of what to shoot, you can also check out the assignment threads. There are new assignments popping up all the time, great to get you past a photography block.

Looking at them now. I guess they could both use a little editing
