Default OMG you've gotta wear shades~ its nuclear

This is what happens when things go very wrong..........I went to hit the delete button and
then looked again and thought wow that looks like the result of a nuclear blow out.
Glad to say I fixed the problem and it got better the 2nd time around.

Nuclear house

This old abandoned house is extraordinary with so many angles and textures, and it really
feels like a haunted old house, just sort of gives you the chills walking around it. Here it
is captured a little better than before, a very sad example of a dream that died.

Old House

I have lots more shots of this place, and plan to go back to try going inside, "GULP!!"

I hope your going in there during the day time..dont think id be brave enough at night..but it certainly does look like a fascinating place and a great photo opportunity. That would make one good horror movie poster.

LOVE the first shot! That house looks like it was amazing back in its prime. Gorgeous building!
Just a bit of a safety warning, I own some property with an older house and the roof and floors especially are notorious for rotting away and collapsing under your feet so be careful going in! Don't want to fall down into the basement through the floor and land on something.

Yikes! It is nuclear. If your posts start glowing, we'll all know why. It is a shame to see the failure of something that was a grand idea.

Thank you everyone. The house is really fascinating, sad and erie, you feel so many emotions standing there. My husband is going back with me today, I'm looking forward to stepping inside, I'll be careful,
hate to think what would happen if anything moved.........I'd probably hurt myself trying to make it back
out the door. This will be a great adventure, hope I get some good photos to post. ( Hopefully not quite so bright, LOL ) Thanks again.

Your right, it looks like WWIII started. LOL, Nice job on both. The comparison from extreme to normal is pretty cool.

That looks like late sixties, mid seventies architecture. I wonder what happened.
Both shots are neat by the way. Be careful!
