Thanks! What was so interesting to me about this property was the fact that it had 3-4 abandoned buildings, old cars, and even an old boat all left like this. One of the abandoned buildings was even a house. When I found it I stopped by the nearest neighbor and asked who owned it.

Personally i prefer nature exploration. I have said before that the best way of getting into or maintaining a photography hobby is to shoot the things you love, your own interests. Lets say you enjoy graffiti, focus on that. I usually put in extra effort that way.

an example of this is the ruins left behind after the olympics in Beijing 2008
