we have a abandoned meat packaging plant and slaughter house in my town, opended in the 70's closed in 1995..it's huge and looks really creepy from the road, I've known a few people who have gone in and stole stupid stuff...but anyways for my college photo assignment I want to do my project on abandoned buildings because we also have an abandoned elementary school that I went to school at and want to get in there also

just wondering what general camera settings I should think about using..I'm assuming it's going to be very dark in the meat plant, the school has quite a few windows

Finally got around to getting out and exploring and taking photos of a location by me. Ive been there a couple times, just this time i had a camera.

Headed down to Lambertville High School in Lambertville NJ. Little history on the school built in 1854 burnt down 1926 and rebuilt a year later, it burnt down again, but i couldn't find the date. there are some stories and haunting's about the place. never really see any or experienced any.

:banghead: It's just not fair... So not fair... The abandoned elementary school that we have here in town, and that I was able to shoot the outside of is scheduled to be demolished. They are already taking stuff out of it, and have broken out most of the windows. I would go and take pictures of it, but people are constantly there clearing it out, and its on the main drag.. *sigh* It was rumored to be haunted too!

I guess I will just have to take photos of the demolition.

I have herd that Lambertville is scheduled for demolishion... I do want to go back and try to find the football field and uprights.

Its amazing looking at photos from a couple years ago from other people who have been there and comparing them to mine and what i saw, and the place looks nothing like it did before, and has changed so much

I have diffidently gotten bitten by the exploration of abandoned places, and so has my friend. i plan on doing a lot more as it starts getting nicer and i get done with school.

Found on a lonely stretch of road, but it was locked up tight. Looked like the homeowner had just left the property-belongings all intact, car with cobwebs, etc..

Thank you.

I spent most of the morning going through this thread - I love abandoned buildings though i don't have the ability to get to them and get inside of them to take photographs like most of you can. I was so intrigued by the discussion of Riverside Hospital on Brother Island in NY that I googled it and found this link with history and photos: Typhus - Photos of Riverside Hospital (North Brother Island) - Abandoned Photography : opacity.us

My apologies if someone else already posted it - 24 pages was a lot to go through and I lost track of who said and posted what after awhile

went back to that old pool of ours (Greenpointers). Here are 3 shots from it.
