I hope your weekends have been a success and that some of you went wandering beyond the front door :-) Yesterday, a couple friends and I decided to explore an abandoned warehouse which used to be a furniture factory until it burnt down in 2005. The space is huge and surprsingly un-eerie although perhaps that was due to the company and time of day.
I like places that are in this state of decay, it warps our perception on how permanent we are - that necessary reality check of how we aren't static immortal beings. It gives a space more character & history and while this place was fairly bare, trying to piece together the odd things we did find (an 80's exercise bike which somehow I forgot to photograph) and a beautiful fluro pink high-waisted skirt fuels one's imagination.
All in all a good place for pondering perspective & heres to a good week!

Holy moly I love this! I wish there were more abandoned places by me and that I had people to explore them with! My favourite photo is definitely this one: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-eePYTd64h38/ViNwEyhWlrI/AAAAAAAAH7Q/A0pZh-XX9-0/s640/eDSC_0759.jpg There's something about the lighting that gives it such amazing atmosphere!

It was so much fun! That photo was from when the boys were jumping back down after climbing through a hole to get to the roof. Couldn't help but be slightly worried they would fall through but all went well n no broken bones! :-)) xxx
