I topped posting here a while back, as things never seemed to take off, at least not for photography. This platform saw its initial burst when Twitter was subsumed, but it staggered and slowed down quickly. I'm certain it is still big for politics, but it never seemed to take off for other media...

It should be starting now, as far as I'm concerned. We need to cleanse ourselves of this stain. It's so embarrassing to be an intelligent and empathetic American right now.

The words to this song make so much more sense as an adult now. Especially living in the US, watching the lights go out... "The grass was greener; the light was brighter...the ringing of the division bell had begun."

Strangely, the first thing that came to mind was a) 50's greasers, and/or b) characters in a pulp 50's science fiction epic. Buck Rogers or Flash Gordon!

Pencil artwork from the early 1950's found inside an abandoned factory in Cleveland, Ohio. These drawings must have been done by an employee who once worked here many decades ago, and who most likely, is long gone from the scene. #artwork #abandoned #urbex #sketch #EastCoastKin #Cleveland #Ohio

I agree. I'm still pissed they took the USS John F Kennedy away and plan to reef her in the Gulf of Mexico. That aircraft carrier was a work of art.

Within the dim depths of a massive and abandoned Cold War era manufacturing plant in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This place was easily the size of a small town. Light and shadow, grime and grit. All the best things in an industrial exploration. #abandoned #urbex #EastCoastKin #Scape #Industrial

The shattered, scrapped and torched auditorium of an abandoned Detroit, Michigan high school. Once grand and ornate, this massive shell was once adorned with red velvet seats and intricate stone decor. Now, as of 2017, it is as you see it... #abandoned #urbex #EastCoastKin #Detroit #Exploration
