Urban Exploration

Wow.
This NPR article http://www.npr.org/2011/01/02/132482428/into-the-tunnels-exploring-the-underside-of-nyc&sc=fb&cc=fp
led me to this guy's webpage with a link to photography of places the majority of us will never see.

This is so cool! I've always been fascinated by New York City's underground. This guy's shots are amazing!

Incredible.. I'd love to do a tour to see these places.. Have you ever watched Cities Of The Underworld on History channel?? I think it would be pretty amazing to get the chance to take a few pictures in places like that..

wow. i really admire the courage that these guys have for going into places that could get them into serious trouble. and the shots they get are simply stunning.

Urban exploration is a ton of fun. Unfortunately I live in a place where there isn't a ton of places to do it (southern Wyoming), but I've had fun in some old factories, and even an abandoned missile base in NJ. The riskiness of it just adds to the thrill, but I always try to go with a buddy. Nothing like photographing decay and places devoid of humans walking around :)

i love urban exploration. it has been a hobby of mine for over a year and i'm guessing i will have quite a few photos in my 365 project on this topic. i actually visited an abandoned hospital today. it's always a great adventure to walk through the halls of a place that has so much history!
