Those shots are amazing..great job

Kick ass shots once again

Damn, those are insane - almost look more CGish than real. Awesome shots.

He'd certainly be more gangster with a sharp hat and pinstripe suit. Perhaps the requisite attire for next you ascend votre salope?

The directory is open for a reason. I'm pretty sure I've stripped all of the personal info out of it. Google finds it for me anyhow :disgust


Ah.. gunkinjima. You know, when we went to Japan, we went to nagasaki, planning to do it.
Problem is about that place, it's really hard to get to. It's a couple of miles off the coast, so you need to pay someone to boat you out there and to drop you off.

Added to that, you can only land on one part, at a specific time of the day, when the tide is right. The cops patrol the waters there, and the last guy who got caught (italian guy) was deported + BANNED FOR LIFE DarkJedi style from Japan.

Also, you have to trust that the motherfucker you paid will return the next day to pick you up ;)

At the time, we didn't have the time to arrange all of that, so it slipped by us.
It'll happen sometime I guess. Hope it lives up to the anticipation ;)

hey.. Canon 1Ds M2, w/ a battered 17-40 F4.0L on front.
Most shots were F8, ~ 2 - 4.5 minutes, iso 200 :)

Simply amazing. Great pictures and story as usual man. :thumbsup

I was wondering when you'd pop in.. thank you :)

You can pull it now i have it, I am going to get it printed in black and white and put it on my wall man thanks!

excellent pics :thumbsup

I thought it was 3d... Stunning architecture!

amazing photography (as always!)...do you have a blog or site with pics of your expeditions?

amazing photos, thanks!

it is quite an amazing adventure, not only do you successfully climb these massive constructions but at the same time you pull off some amazing photographs depicting views which you could only get from sitting on that roof (unless you were in a helicopter).
the detail of the photographs are astonishing, i am sure you could sell to a post card print shop and share these beauty of arts with the masses.

btw, there is a church in Barcelona waiting for you...

We have a Spain trip planned for the summer. Going to hop some freight trains and trundle down to see what we can find!

Thanks! :D

Dude you probably have no idea, but I'm your biggest fan. I send your photos to lots of people and talk about you at parties :1orglaugh

haha.. I hope to bump into you at a party one day.

Actually, I was at a WM convention once, chatting with a guy, and we got onto the topic of photography, etc.
I said that yes, I did a bit of urban exploration too.
The guy said: yeah, but there's this dude I've seen post on GFY, he posted some crazy shit like a missile base.
I said: Oh, like a NASA rocket?
Him: Yeah, something like that, but man, it was like underground.
I said: Yeah, I think I know the one.
Him: Nah I doubt it man, they had to like abseil in with ropes n shit.
Me: Oh yeah? Dude sounds hardcore :winkwink:

Well-done man.

Making such art from a personal hobby is behond bad ass. You should be published
