The Art of Urban Exploration

[RC211V]

---

Urban exploration (often shortened as urbex or UE) is the examination of the normally unseen or off-limits parts of urban areas or industrial facilities. It is also commonly referred to as "creeping" or infiltration, although some people consider infiltration to be more closely associated with the exploration of active or inhabited sites.

The nature of this activity presents various risks, including both physical danger and the possibility of arrest and punishment. Many, but not all, of the activities associated with Urban Exploration could be considered trespassing or other violations of local or regional laws.

all pics taken using Nokia N82, then edited in iPhoto for contrast and color hue adjustment. Some out of focus shots i did intentionally during photo editing. There really is no point to these photos. It's just UrbEx.

Kun mao ni UrbEx, mora'g di kaayo ko kasakay kung wa'y point ang images. IMHO, bisan unsa ang working environment, kinahanglan naay message and artistry ang image.

No offense intended.
