Urban Decay



Yahoo News has just published an editorial about urban decay featuring a marvelous gallery of photographic evidence. So, if you're a "ruins junky" like Mac Tonnies was a ruins junky and can appreciate the beauty of dissolution and desolation, prepare yourself for some exquisite eye-candy.

The example above is a photograph of the Eastern State Penitentiary in Pennsylvania snapped by photographer, Eric Holubow .

  1. The link contains incredible HDR photographs -- all depicting an essence of the surreal, while contained completely within this dimension -- an incredible feat of seeing and technique.

    Thank you for the link.

  2. You're welcome, Bob!

    Mankind puts it up, Nature takes it down - there's something perversely satisfying about the resulting architecture.

    "Rust never sleeps"!
