I don't take many photos (besides my LP's Tongue

) but here's a photo I took last year. I walk around town so many times but I never stop to look at historical buildings Embarrassed

It's a monastery built in the 13th century.

Europe has some absolutely beautiful buildings, so much history. Exploring in Europe is something on my bucket list.

Btw love those pics Alex! Reminds me of your Harold Budd review - certainly gives it a nice backdrop.

Hehe, thanks, that's the only time I've ever done that however, you really need to be alert when traipsing around in abandoned buildings, and being able to hear the sound of other people, cracking floors, alarms, anything is invaluable.

This was the place I actually listened to Budd's Abandoned Cities in. It's an old coal breaker in rural Pennsylvania, they've unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on who you are) started demolishing it. It was one of my favorite explores to date.

Thanks Alex - I really enjoyed those. I like wandering round old decaying buildings and machinery. Up here in the Northern part of Denmark I see more of old tractors in abandoned barns, ooooold creaky mills and run down farms that look like they would be the ideal set to a rendition of 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre'.

Spooky and beautiful all at once.

tastefully taken... funny... Raff and I were at our favorite Indian place yesterday and sitting close to us was this beautiful family. Indian of course LOL

that had the two most precious and beautiful young children. A boy and a girl. I have very ..very.. soft spot in my heart for children and thought for a second of snapping off a picture.. but how to do explain that without coming off as a complete creep...

which I don't have.. which would add to the creep factor.. LOL

To take a cue from the lovely Terri.. I'll just live vicariously through the photography of others.

But back to urban decay...or in my case, rural decay.
It's no DeLorean...but it would have been an excellent rebuild project. I have no idea what kind of car it was.

If anyone sees that kind of behaviour, it should be brought to the attention of the authorities immediately.

This was many years ago and I was less aware of the need to take immediate action.

I think life has taught us all to be aware of that kind of stuff...or the potential for it.

paging our resident gear head... Gary?... I have no idea but all I know is I could see myself styling and profiling around town in one of those...
