Resolute


A charming memory of what once was stands resolute above an abysmal gray wall of vandalism.

Shadows dance beneath arched walls, still beautiful beneath their scars.


The end of the sky bridge is abrupt and seemingly cold.  Yet one can see small spots of beauty.


WARNING: Anyone wishing to visit The Abandoned, must seek permission from the owners.

Where the Shadow People Live

There are shadow people who live in The Abandoned.  I have not seen them myself, but I have felt them slipping through the darkness as Sissy and I walk through the buildings.

I was not surprised, when going through my photos, to discover a shadow person lurking in that dark hallway--Oh!  Phew!  It's just Sissy, the Artist.  She's no doubt taking an incredible shot at that moment!
 
Check out Harriet's blog for more wonderful shadowy photography at Shadow Shot Sunday.

NOTE: If you intend to visit The Abandoned, be sure to get permission from the owners first. If you do not have permission, you may be arrested and prosecuted for trespassing.

Where the Children Play


The Abandoned Mega Church has many interesting rooms where the children and artists play.  Above is one of them.

Clytie and I walked over to view the newest artwork in the main auditorium--I've displayed these photos the best I could, below--I apologize there are so many!




Together these letters spell out,  "Live the Dream." 

Here is the entire wall as we saw it that day.
