Dude this whole set is off the chaaaaaiiiin! Nice way to close it out with the hole in the wall. Sh*t is fiyaah!!

CartLegger: 7th Apr 2009 - 01:28 GMT

I know you shot hunnerds on Saturday, but it stll seems like everyone's a best one. Great use of VERY LITTLE light.

Peter: 7th Apr 2009 - 01:30 GMT

i didnt do anything to the photos but resize; it was so eerily overcast the whole time, and im glad to see some of that light (and some of that crazy, stagnant darkness too) made it through pretty accurately. id really like to check this place out in a rainstorm or after a big snowfall. who ever knew had such cool shit laying around?

i shot 206 photos this entire weekend. one for every bone in the human body.

Holly: 7th Apr 2009 - 01:49 GMT

I love the photos of the books scattered across the floor. Feeling the one tooth Graffiti shot as well.

poisonedapple: 7th Apr 2009 - 01:54 GMT

this is SO ironic! i live in rosebank and am obsessed with this community. rosebank has SO many great picture opportunities, i'm really glad someone noticed. i just picked up a lomo Diana to start capturing the area, this really is uplifting!

adam: 7th Apr 2009 - 02:13 GMT

glad you got more (essential) shots than me.. i cant afford to run out memory card space next time ;)

anon (static.unknown.charter.com): 7th Apr 2009 - 05:08 GMT

Fan-TAS-tic shots. Really cool graffiti too.

Graz: 7th Apr 2009 - 05:24 GMT

I'm lovin' the urban ex type photos you've been posting! Great job!

Rob T Firefly: 7th Apr 2009 - 15:15 GMT

This is a hell of a set! Thanks for sharing them.

I love the fact that someone painted a bright white tooth on the wall of a chewing gum factory.

Sam: Now it is a tetanus factory. Cool pix.

Shaolin Fox: 7th Apr 2009 - 18:24 GMT

Such a waste of space. Great photos [as always] and really enjoyed the art. ;)

GirlsGirlsGirls: quite a great gallery

luna park: props, guys, well done as usual.

Anais NIN: 8th Apr 2009 - 05:41 GMT

Amazing, wow! I'm really glad people like you go out and track-down/brave this sort of thing so that those of us who could/would never get there ourselves can see it.

bettina: 8th Apr 2009 - 12:48 GMT
