Those are some awsome pics :D

quantum-x is my new hero :)

i think this is going to be my new hobby. just about the coolest stuff i've seen in a looong time.

here is a cool article, they actually found a cinema down there:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/internatio...299444,00.html

After entering the network through a drain next to the Trocadero, the officers came across a tarpaulin marked: Building site, No access.

Behind that, a tunnel held a desk and a closed-circuit TV camera set to automatically record images of anyone passing. The mechanism also triggered a tape of dogs barking, "clearly designed to frighten people off," the spokesman said.

Further along, the tunnel opened into a vast 400 sq metre cave some 18m underground, "like an underground amphitheatre, with terraces cut into the rock and chairs".

There the police found a full-sized cinema screen, projection equipment, and tapes of a wide variety of films, including 1950s film noir classics and more recent thrillers. None of the films were banned or even offensive, the spokesman said.

im gonna bump this old thread cos its been bugging me since i first read it. sounds like the coolest thing in a while. what are the legal issues around it/ like is trespassing a fine or can this shit land you in jail? seems like itd be a pretty cool weekend warrior hobby for a poser like me :)

thanks for the bump lloyd

quantum-x:
What do you recommend to explore for beginners?

quantum-x - OUTSTANDING stuff...will deffy look more deep into this :)

Your posts made me want to buy a new better digital camera :D

no kidding, the only cameras i have are tiny garbage for taking pictures of titties at bars etc, nothing proper.

anyways i'm hopefully off now to go give this shit a shot, hopefully i'll have some cool pictures, even if they are only 1280x1024 ;)

I'd imagine you could be in some serious legal trouble if you were caught more than a couple of times. I'd be more concerned about safety issues myself: things like rotting floors, asbestos, stored waste products etc.

BTW quantum-x: I'm now seriously considering the leap to a 1DsII. And a better insurance policy, it's been 3 weeks and I still don't have a cheque!

quantum-x - how can i contact you m8?

50 whatever...

:( :( ..................

bump cos im drunk and have nothing else today.....


and spent half my day riding a dirt bike through Private Property snapping pics

On the way to Whistler I'm sure you've seen that old abandoned mine on the side of the highway. Up in the hills behind the mine there is an old abandoned town. EXTREMELY FXCKING SPOOKY. It looks like people packed up with 2 minutes notice and disappeared.


Also, you can explore the mine shafts at night. That is extremely dangerous, but an extreme rush. Don't go in too deep ;)

ah sorry, missed a few posts.
ICQ 52779009 is me.

thaT IS A GREAT experience quantum-x!

Follow the Sea to Sky until you see the huge abandoned mine :)

ya but isnt the mine on the edge of a cliff or something, trying to picture how youd get like 400 ft up behind it..

quantum-x, your pics are a true inspiration.

I have a life long project I've done for some time - documenting the change of my city. So I've taken pics of most old and abandoned buildings here. Yesterday I wanted to see if I could get inside and take some pics from there.

Found an entrance to an old tunnel that I thought was plugged and one entrance to a building that was a part of the submarine factory.
Shit just doing the recon tour was fun :D

How the hell did you get this pic man ? It's freak !
