I Capture The Beauty Of Abandoned Places Before Nature Reclaims Them Forever

ADVERTISEMENT

There is something enticing about abandoned places. One can feel the past in such places, they have a peculiar smell. The nature is inevitably reclaiming them.

A couple of years ago I entered a derelict cement plant in Jaworzno and instantly fell in love with the place. Since then I’ve been trying to visit as many abandoned places as possible, in Poland and other countries.

I believe that there is an obscure beauty in such places, unseen by most people. I try to bring it forward in my photographs entitled “Abandoned Places” in order to share my passion with inhabitants of Silesia.

    Awesome photos! I wonder though, the second photo of the abandoned church (?) - the "ghosts". Can someone explain them? Staged, skeletons, dolls, or what?

    Great idea to visit those places, beside Pripyat, a pair of hands is fair enough :D

    Wow! I agree with what you said about abandoned placecs. There is a certain something about them that is very enticing. It's both creepy and interesting at the same time!

    Przydałyby się adresy tych miejsc! (chociaż miasta) Link "more info" nie działa.
