Once again I cannot take credit for discovering the accessibility of this spot; it was a friend of mine from New York who randomly decided to give it a go. Normally when someone in the community finds a new location, all I feel is pride. However this time around it was pure shame...despite all the years of peering up at this tower, I never even took the time to give it a try.



This is one of those spots that has limitless angles to shoot from. Foolishly, I spent most of my time taking a timelapse down Adelaide and shooting the lookdowns over and over again. I know I'm only sharing a handful of shots here, but I'm trying to work on the whole, "less is more" thing. Anyways, a couple hours after sunset had passed, we finally decided it was time to head home.

Being away from the urban playground is hard. I've had this mindset for the past couple years that "urbex" has become so popular that every other person and their uncle has dabbled in it at one time or another. Yet after 2 months of school, no one has shown even the slightest interest in exploring. I spend hours wandering the trails behind campus, fooling around in the tunnels under the lecture halls or popping doors open to random mech rooms and roofs. Still - it's not the same...it's a lonely life out at Brock. I guess we still are weirdos after all?

Hope you enjoy the photos, when I get home I'll try to finish up the stuff from Europe and post a link here!

Oh, and here's an essential playlist to put on while you look at rooftop porn!

Yeah I get that feeling sometimes as well, people touch the hobby once go "eh, that's pretty neat" and then go back to not really caring. Only the really curious ones seem to stick around (although admittedly I have yet to actually see any of those "curious ones").
Gorgeous work as always, less is definitely more.

The accompanying music fit very well and brought a whole different feeling to the photos. Whenever I look at your downward building shots, I get amazed at the amount of clear detail.

Thanks man, I've been playing batman soundtrack on repeat for the past few weeks. Always puts me in the "zone". The detail on those lookdowns is simply me reaping the benefits of all the expensive gear; I can crank the iso to 1600 ish and still have a pretty clear image, and the "vibration reduction" on the tamron 15-30 works stupidly well.

Apparently phantomos has been all over this shit...told us a few times that it was the easiest building in the city. We all thought he was joking...he was exaggerating of course, but truthful none the less!

Thanks dawg

Yesir! Plenty of dope construction sites going up right now. They're at the stage where they don't have a crane up, and the bottom floors are open for residents. However the top floors are all still under construction, meaning that getting into buildings and then up is often stupid easy.

Thanks a bunch! Yeah...I've taken many of my friends and 90% kinda just bank in their memories as "one of those nights"...
