Who else loves to take photos of abandoned buildings, derelict vehicles or equipment, and other relics of the recent past? I mostly like stuff that's not old enough to be considered "historic."
Here are a few of my recent pics:
Abandoned building and derelict truck, Hwy 93 and Old Lincoln Highway North of Ely, NV, May 2009:
Derelict Jeep (M38A1) at the abandoned Arne's Royal Hawaiian Motel in Baker, CA, March 2011:
Incidentally, this motel was apparently open for business as recently as 2010, according to some of the online reviews I've seen. I guess it was a scary place - the kind of "motel" where you wouldn't be surprised to find a dead body in the room. Check out the online reviews, they're priceless.
Abandoned Titan 1 ICBM silo, Eastern Colorado (Titan 1's had three launchers at each base, I'm standing on the cap of Launcher #1, launcher #2 is the big concrete cap in the foreground)
Remains of the aptly-named town of Last Chance, Eastern CO, March 2009:
Abandoned homestead, Northeastern CO, March 2009:
Abandoned Atlas E ICBM Silo, Northeastern CO, March 2009:
I'm sure I'm not the only one out there who likes to take these kinds of photos - let's see your "abandoned/Derelict" photos!
