Civil War/Abandoned Factory
 

Was awesome out today so I took the 5D and 17-40/135L out with me to mess around and this is what i came up with. It's a lot of photos but I think you guys can handle it. Stupid me was in AV and forgot to change to f2 when the 135L was on so most of these are at f4 and a few of the factory are at f8. Enjoy, or hate. I can handle it. On to it.

definitely sharp... some of the compositions seems a bit off #3 and #19 are my favs

Some nice pics man.

thanks grimm. i know i coulda done better with comp on a few of them but i definitely think they're usable. i know the shots of the clock are off a bit. i was rushing myself (not good i know).

i think with a little PP and cropping you could fix most of them. like #15.. just crop out the bottom where there is a little bit of the plaque thing showing. #2 i would just brighten up slightly. #4 and #8 might be better as a black and white or a duo-tone. but those are just my personal thoughts.

I need to get a 5D

your comments are always welcome. i liked #8 in color to show some of the grime/mold that has accumulated from being abandoned for so long. i was walking through the top floor and almost had the floor cave on me a couple times, haha.

i demand you tell me where this is! you need some girls in dresses in these shots haha.

8 is my fav.

Yes tell us where its at, would be a sweet spot to shoot some hot car for sure.

number 11 works for me

Chaz/Howie. The building is fenced off and locked. I snuck in through a little opening in the fence.

tresspassing doesnt exist in my world.

clearly in mine either. just meant it might be a little tricky to get cars in close enough to the building.

have you ever gone to the abandoned building behind the beer distro in yardley?
Map Of Area

Also Roebling, NJ it's an old town built around a factory/mill. The factory is closed and abandoned. The town looks crazy though, almost like a ghost town, even though people still live there.
Map of Area

Trenton is also filled with buildings like this, although... i don't think i would go in most of them.

never been back there. i would like to go exploring back there. is there a way to get there?

are you talking to me?

Good shots buddy.

Looks cool man. I love places like that.

thanks guys. saw it the other day and had to get back there. kinda stumbled on the grave site.

Very cool area.

Not bad.

I like the inside of the building shot.

That basement is WICKED!

your pictures are sweet minus one thing,

YOUR CAR!!!!!!!!


this would be a sick location to pull up the whip and snap some shots.
