Welcome to another dose of ruins and decay.
Don't you just love the smell of oil soaked concrete in the morning? That's one of the many things I enjoy about exploring abandoned industrial sites. It's a strange thing to enjoy, I know. Why would anyone like that smell? Who knows. Decades of oil and engine grease combined with metals, paints, concrete and brick. Layers of history. Layers of toxicity. Of course its not like a freshly baked pan of cookies. You don't take a deep breath inside an Industrial site.
On to the good stuff!
This blog serves as a source of inspiration to photographers, urban explorers, game designers, architects and probably many other types of individuals that I haven't even thought would be interested. Here are other ways to connect with the IDN.
