February 2007

This article was first published in February 2007

The first months started quite gently, with a couple of nice socializing activities, for example organized by Anne from Tenderfeelings There was also a colleague of mine who had a baby boy, and I took the pictures for the birthdaycard. And then I met OrElEkE, a girl who introduced me to the wonderful life of Urban Exploration. Urbex as we call it is the examination of the normally unseen or off-limits parts of human civilization. More information can be found on Wikipedia : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urban_exploration . Some of the places we visited (alone or together with friends) were an abandoned theme park, an old hospital, a crypte, a sanatorium, an orphanage and some factories. We only take picture and leave footprints. On some occasions we also took models there for some interesting combination of abandoned beauty.

Some examples of my urbex pictures can be seen here : http://urbex.deviantart.com/gallery/
