Above you can see a photo that I shot during a hike near the nature reserve Schellbruch. It’s a wrecked or abandoned boat. I like abandoned objects and structures, because the worn-out textures or the rust colours are very interesting. Also abandoned things remind me of dystopian science fiction movies, a genre that I really like. Continue reading Abandoned Boat
Here is a photo that I shot near the rail station of Lübeck. The original photo bored me and I wondered what I could do to improve the photo. It turned out that a black and white effect makes the photo look interesting. I thought this looks pretty much like one of those images that are used on old hip hop record labels. I like how this turned out. Sometimes you are just a few mouse clicks away to heavily improve a boring photo. I must say, I am generally a fan of black and white photos, but I think … Continue reading Abandoned Building Near Rail Station
As you might have noticed, I am currently a bit slower with the publishing on my blog. It’s autumn, a good time to get the hands on some computer games. But in the meantime I wanted to show you a photo again. I shot this photo of the old door a while back, I didn’t like how the colours turned out, but I liked the photo after I converted it to black and white. The photo is a nice expansion to my abandoned category. I do really like old materials that suffered, I like the texture of these materials. Continue reading Old Door In Black And White

As mentioned in my previous post, I am going to upload some photos of abandoned and damaged things over time too. I became curious when I saw a documentary about photography where they reported about a few guys who liked to visit old places to take pictures of abandoned architecture and textures of old materials. At a later point I met a photographer in a forest and we talked about our hobby and he showed me on his phone what he is into, it was mainly portrait photography and lost places. I liked his portrait work, but the photos he … Continue reading Broken Windows
I always wanted to expand the categories of my blog about urban exploration or abandoned stuff. If you take so many photos, you never know what you want to upload or share first. Abandoned things are very interesting and I shot all kind of photos that I shouldn’t forget to upload too. I always mentioned that I don’t know exactly what I like about abandoned things, but I assume it’s about the textures and details of old and rotten materials, but maybe it’s also about the mysteriousness of abandoned things.
