a fall afternoon at Allegany state park. A road bends severely to the left bordered on the right by large boulders and on both sides by trees with bright orange leaves. shadows from them are cast down on the road. on a leaf covered trail in the late afternoon. the foreground is covered in fallen orange and brown leaves. on the horizon is a line of trees some with orange leaves left over and the sunlight glowing through them.

inside the dark

#blueskyartshow #inside #urbex #photography
a black and white photo inside a rounded concrete tunnel. water covers the ground. You can see the impression of wooden planks that were used to hold up the concrete on the walls. a photo of long concrete tunnel, the walls stained from years of water. some numbers 4+02.5 can be seen spray painted on the right hand wall. In the distance is a bright light shining down indicating a manhole.

Met Gary Farmer last night, he was cool. Talked about how much he enjoyed being in Dead Man, how he was in a gang around Buffalo back in the day, and then they had this man read off raffle ticket numbers.

Three people in an event space, to the left is me wearing a black shirt and khaki pants cause someone told me it was 'business casual' and then wore suits but whatever, in the middle is a native woman wearing a ribbon skirt and black shirt, and to the right is actor Gary farmer in a blazer and black shirt.

in game cutscene from dying light the beast, the character starchild stands in his weird lab and says 'welcome to my humble abode.' he is dressed like a stereotypical aging hippie but has infected eyes.

in the dark

#glow #blueskyartshow #photography #urbex
a mostly black image, in the left lower corner a multiple exposure of a figure lit only by their flashlight. They are standing on burnt out metal stairs. this was inside the main room of the radar station in Sanford, NY after we turned all but the one flashlight out and left the camera in bulb mode.

Him is getting some mixed reviews but I don't think you can do a movie about the horrors of the NFL and be subtle about it. Definitely enjoyed that.

an abandoned orphanage

#blackandwhite #31daysofhalloween #urbex #abandoned #photography
An open door lets a beam of light into a dark classroom. A pillar stands in the center. The paint on the walls is peeling off. There are some thin legged tables in the back. The floor is covered in dirt. In the back a sliver of light on the edge of boarded up window. An abandoned classroom with a pillar and a table in the center. A large bookshelf is on its side on the ground. There are four windows in the room three of which are boarded up. The leftmost one has only a few wood panels left and lets light into the room. Long dead fluorescent lights hang down from the ceiling. A broken water main with frozen water leading out of it to the ice covered floor. A large abandoned brick building with its windows boarded up or entirely missing. Snow covers the slanted roof of the building. It is long and rectangular jutting in from the right of the image. Thick snow covers the ground and a trail of footprints leads from the center of the image off toward the building in the distance. Branches are strewn on top of the snow.

leaning back

#blueskyartshow #relax #photography #blackandwhite #glitch
a black and white photo of a statue of a nude woman leaning back on a wooden platform. The statue has its head leaning back and its knees up with arms and feet laying flat. It is much larger than a person. The ground around it is cleared with only dirt and leaves. In the background is a line of trees. a (almost) black and white photo with a cooling filter applied. The image has also been modified in audacity to give it a grainy and distorted look. A minimal amount of color bleeds through. The image depicts a statue of a woman in part of a movement of a backstroke. The statue is in a pond surrounded by reeds.

alley in old san juan

#blueskyartshow #relax #photography
A narrow alley with rows of tables to the right. The buildings surrounding the alley are brightly colored lime green, teal, and orange. One of the tables to the right has a bright green umbrella below which a man with glasses and a white shirt sits reading. Decorative lights cross back and forth between the buildings. A blue sky with large white clouds can be seen above.

#blackandwhite #photography #abandoned #roadtrip
black and white image of a bending road between two tall hills covered in trees with no leaves. its raining. to the right off the shoulder of the road are power poles and lines. at the edge of the road is a guardrail. an empty store at a mall, its entrance has trees on each side reaching up to the roof of the building. the sign says niagara emporium. the parking lot of empty and the asphalt damaged. i think this used to be an am&a's store before.

old malt factory

#photography #abandoned #urbex
a metal conveyor belt extending out of an exposed hole in the wall. The brick wall it sticks out of is covered in graffiti. To the right snow has blown in. Outside, a smoke stack can be seen in the distance. A fenced in room inside a larger brick room with a riveted steel cylinder. Light is coming in through the fencing illuminating the graffiti on the cylinder. The floor is covered in dirt and shadow. A large room that looks burned, black charring is on most of the walls. To the right are steel guardrails. Some cables hang off of them.

(someones) home

Hudson St. - Buffalo, NY in 2008

#blueskyartshow #home #photography #glitch #blackandwhite #urbex #abandoned
The third floor of an abandoned house. The image is very de-saturated with only some red of the bricks on the chimney and a red curtain in a window showing. Three windows at the top are open. Paint is peeling off the siding and the gutters along the top are gone showing damage to the roof itself. Black and white. An three story abandoned home. Windows are open or broken, paint peels from the siding, and large empty lot sits in the foreground. To the left other houses can be seen. Trees sit on either side of the house with no leaves. Black and white with selective coloring. Two layers run through glitch passes in audacity. The front of an abandoned house its yard is covered in leaves and other detritus. In the foreground the only spot of color is a wooden sign painted blue and green with a red heart. It reads in red text Hope Is Power and is held up by a piece of rebar sticking out of the ground.

summer flame

#blueskyartshow #summer #photography #gas #fire
A flame behind a small waterfall. The image is in black and white except for the flame which is selectively colored. This is the Eternal Flame Falls at Chestnut Ridge park. The flame is caused by natural gas seeping out of the base of the waterfall.
