9.23.2009 blogcast – Urbex
Hey everyone!
I’m going to keep this weeks post brief, and let the video do most of the talking. I’ve been really busy lately and have lacked the time I would normally have to post more frequent blogcasts.
Quick Edit 09.30.09. Ok, so a lot of you have enjoyed this rather creepy video this week. I’ll go ahead and admit I got some inspiration from Marble Hornets rather eerie stuff. And thats all I’m saying about that.
I’ve been reworking a lot of my work and, opened up a new print gallery over at QOOP.com. I’ve also started offering things like coffee mugs and totes with my photography on them over at Zazzle.com. I hope you check it out and buy something, your support is what helps me keep this place running.
Anyway, enough about that. This episode focuses on a few recent urbex trips to rural locations in North Georgia. And believe me, these places where pretty run down! In fact in the last urbex I call “stripped” I nearly get caught. Simply by not following one of my golden rules when performing this kind of operation, don’t linger too long.
I think the reason I hung out so long at this last spot is mainly because it was so boring, I kept trying to find something interesting to shoot… when what I should have done is just leave. So, a tip for you, if there is nothing interesting to shoot, don’t hang around these types of places.
I’ve got a few of the photos listed below you can go through as well. Plus, check out my Urban Exploration gallery too!

Reg and I really enjoyed this one. Very entertaining. But Reg says that this video just confirmed that he will never go to that place – ever, LOL! That ghost effect you did scared him, ha! Great job.

September 25th, 2009 at 9:13 pmWow, loving the props! I’d give Reg a tour of all of them, but since my last visit they walled one of these locations off. Good thing I got in when I did. Oh, and what ghost?

I can say that if you look at just about any rural location in North Georgia you can find something that is a state of decay. Our economy has made sure to provide you plenty to work with. Here are some spots I’ve been to > [...]
