Virginal Experience - Eastman Kodak #9
< on 3/29/2010 8:56 PM >
Posted on Forum: UER Forum
 
Had my first experience this weekend after doing some research exploration and decided to chance it at the Eastman Kodak Building. From the walk from the parking lot to the building, we passed (or were passed) by four different cop cars, one unmarked. No issues at all once we got to the building though.

I'm looking forward to learning from you all. I'm more photographer than explorer, but looking for a better balance.

Don't forget the drama, and the odd epic win thrown in for good mix.

Keep it fuzzy.

Thanks guys, I blog in order to force myself to go out and shoot -- makes me learn quicker.

Drama is pretty much to be expected nowadays with so many social media options out there. I just want to take in what I can and try to ignore that side of the forum. Hopefully.

nice! i like that you aren't afraid to introduce yourself as a photographer/explorer and not the other way around. your shots definitely prove it. welcome to the madness.

Thanks. I am guessing by this statement that there is an explorer/photographer divide of some sort?

It's one of those "to each their own" kinda things. Some people just like wandering buildings, then there are those who just like to photograph them.

Then there's those who like to do both. Beautiful shots, and welcome aboard!

looks like the set turned out pretty well! really like #2 and #4.

like i mentioned to you, theres a real mix of explorers and photographers here. and as far as photography goes, everything from your standard point & shoot, to digital and analog SLR, medium format, and beyond... we like variety.

Wow, I love this set man... My only critique would be that it would've been nice to see more of that broken window in the photo of rochester.

-I didn't know so much of the old Kodak estate is abandoned... there's a kind of pleasant irony in it now making such a cool UE photographic-study.

Welcome!!!

If photography is a function of the photographer then I will contentedly buy all my gear on craigslist. (/from livestrong2009)

Hey nice pictures =) Welcome.

I just like to wander pretty much, but I like to do it with people who like to photograph. That way I can see the photos afterwards too. =)

Give a person a match and they'll be warm for a minute, but light them on fire and they'll be warm for the rest of their life. =)

Rochester has the HQ of the Eastman Kodak Company.

I believe you're getting confused, there was a Kodak Plant in Toronto, ON. That is what these photos are from. As far as I know most of the Kodak HQ in Rochester NY is still very much active.

Thanks for the clarification Axle.

How many more years do you think until we can explore the one in Rochester? haha.
