Old Yard





I came here again on my own to take some exterior photographs. But then saw a gap in the fence where i could fit through. I didn't however want to go in on my own as i knew that this was another site in which it is used for drug exchanges etc. I decided i would phone my mate up from college who kindly popped down and came inside with me.
I was amazed by the sheer size of the warehouse and was pleased that
one of my photos showed alot of the inside. The photo was taken on wide angle 28 mm but looks as though it was taken using a fisheye lens !!!
Again i wouldn't suggest going to these sites on your own always take someone with you and if you feel unsafe go straight away and don't think that you are forced to go inside even if it looks really interesting!


Photographs From A Beautifully Built Derelict Warehouse

Here i have shown some photographs from a site in which i found extremely interesting. The site itself is set back from the main road so finding it was a tad hard!!!! When getting to the location i met a guy who was sat against the outside of the building. I spoke to him very briefly but didn't want to stay long because i have heard many things that have happened at this site. I still went inside to see if there was anything interesting to photograph. I actually went inside with two teenagers who i have never met 
before (I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND DOING THIS AS IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AND COULD LEAD INTO A TRAP) I was lucky not to get attacked and have my camera pinched!! Upon uploading the photographs i soon discovered that this was a great photo opportunity and wish that i could go back and take more photographs. I wouldn't, personally feel safe attending the same location again as i might not be so lucky and get into trouble.
One tip of advice for people who are interested in doing photographs like this "Be extremely careful and don't do what I did and go inside with random people"
