Gary Indiana Exploration 08-31-08

Ok, as you guys know, I went out to the most abandoned city in America again on Saturday. Said I’d post a few photos. As always, more photos and larger versions available at my flickr stream at http://www.flickr.com/photos/cityeyes
Here they are:
A shutter, busted out from either wear through time or a vandal, sits in the center [...]

Abandoned Chicago Hospital

I spent my Sunday exploring an abandoned hospital. It was amazing.
The hospital closed in 2001 due to malpractice - doctors were recommending unnecessary surgery and allowing patients to undergo operations that they didn’t need. Now, the hospital is a mildewy mess - the carpet squished beneath my feet with every step, tiles were curled up [...]

Abandoned Church Exploration pt.2

I loved the place so much that I went back again. Unfortunately, it took me forever to write about it, so I might be a bit fuzzy on the details. More exploration to come! Here are some photos of the abandoned church, as well as explanation.

We took the train straight to where we waited for the demolition to commence (for three hours no less - but it was worth it - the [...]

Before I start this post, I’d like to give ridiculous credit to Adam Fendelman over at hollywoodchicago.com for the incredible sleuthing skills/great sources. Without it, I would have never been able to get out there and take some shots myself. Anyone interested can find the original scoop here: Source Also thanks to two of my [...]

As always, Chicago was amazingtastic. It was great hanging out with a few of my friends again - Andrew and Cristin are always amusing and I hadn’t seen Nate forever - and of course Elise, but that’s a given.
Nothing incredibly exciting happened, but I documented it with a lot of pics and as always had [...]

Jones Soda!

As many of you know I love photography and it’s a major part of my life…well a while ago I submitted a bunch of my stuff to Jones Soda and what they do is sift through their stuff and put what they like on their bottles. I searched for my name in google (a little [...]
