Abandoned Balconies
The view from abandonment. Many abandoned buildings are set in beautiful locations with stunning vista's. Some more grand than others.
No more morning coffees, romantic dinners while watching the setting sun. No more watching the sunrise with a glass of wine after a crazy night out. These balconies lie empty and restless.
Beelitz Mens Pavillion:
A large amount of balconies can be found here as it was built as a sanatorium and air baths were considered the best form of treatment for tuberculosis.
Mundesley TB Hospital:
The view of this stunning building from a balcony of this old sanatorium. A very interesting building which is certainly out of place in Norfolk UK

Abandoned: When Nature Takes Over
Abandoned places are often overgrown.
More often outside than in. However on the odd occasion it does appear or work its way inside.
Usually creeping in through window frames or broken panes.
Sometimes though you find the less ordinary. From mould or fungi, a lone sprout and even full on plant life.
Here is a selection of my favourite shots where nature has taken over.
Monastere Antionette
A large amount of mould growing on the windowsill in this abandoned Belgian monastery.
Fort De La Chartreuse
A serious amount of overgrowth in this derelict fort in Belgium.
British Celanese
A lone sprout in a warehouse of a large unused factory in the UK.
Fenland Farmhouse
Overgrowth creeping in to this bedroom in an abandoned UK farmhouse.
Krampnitz Kaserne
Moss on the floor and even the ceiling in this derelict military barracks in Germany.
Derby Royal Infirmary
An injection of green as plant life creeps in through the window of this abandoned UK hospital.
Denbigh Asylum
A grass carpet covers the floor of this room in a derelict asylum in Wales.
RAF West Raynham:
The fine overgrowth here seems like an alien lifeform spreading across the room in this bedroom of an abandoned RAF base in the UK.
Berkyn Manor
Vines spreading over the rustic kitchen sink in this abandoned Manor house in the UK.
Thanks for looking and I hope you enjoyed this selection of images. As always the images and titles are links back to the full location reports. If anywhere catches your eye feel free to check out the full reports.
Abandoned: 16mm F2.4 Urbex Bokeh
The Urbex photography scene is predominantly big wide epic shots with front to back sharpness, a bit of blur makes a break from the norm.
Around Christmas 2013 I bought a Samsung NX1100 CSM. It was quite a bargain and nice and small. The idea of it was an every day camera. Much easier than carrying round an SLR. Later inthe year I got a 16mm 2.4 lens for it and I love it. Really straight lines and beautiful soft bokeh.
It is great for a first post of a new location, a small tease of what its really like due to the shallow DOF and a lot of the image being out of focus.
Here is a small selection of images I have taken with this lens/camera combo.
Swithland Reservoir :
Thanks for looking as always the images and their titles are links back to the original report. So if any of the images leave you intrigued feel free to check out the rest of the location.
I hope you enjoyed as part two is well underway.
