Mother Nature is in the process of reclaiming this old, dilapidated farmhouse. My wife and I cycled by it the other evening and I knew the moment I saw it that it demanded my return with 5D in hand...

Several years ago it was a fight to restore this beach after hurricane erosion. Now the beach is reclaiming what it rightfully owns.

We lay claim to her bounty,
fuelling our insatiable needs.
We leave behind scars, our blood, sweat and tears.
Discarded remnants of bygone days,
evidence of toil throughout the years.
But she will have the final say,
the unstoppable force prevails.

Here is Byron Lotton. He suffered burns all over his body after the attack on his shipyard. His eyes blaze with vengeful purpose.
Abandoned coal breaker in mid-Pennsylvania. I've been amazed at these structures for years, and finally got the chance this weekend to get inside a few. The weather was rainy, but amazingly perfect with its angry skies.

In capturing this abandoned factory, I wanted to show how nature slowly reclaims human constructions. The composition juxtaposes the harsh lines of the deteriorating structure with the soft elements of encroaching vegetation, telling a story of time and transformation.

So after quite a bit of colour recently, time for a return to my real passion - what my friends call my apocalyptic photography.
As always there's a little bit of a story to this photograph. For quite some time I wanted to photograph this but haven't had chance to get to this particular beach (and there's no dogs allowed which is a problem as I usually take Zack with me when I'm out). As it happens though, when I got there 'this' turned out not to be what I actually thought it was.
I'd seen some time ago an image that I thought was some kind of double groyne with circular posts. I had a pretty clear idea of what I wanted to shoot when I eventually got there at the right tide. As it happens, when I got there I couldn't find the groyne but did find this outlet pipe covered in seaweed. It took me a short while to realise this is what I was looking for - you can see towards the centre of shot the pattern of two posts side by side. So always happy to adjust, I changed the shot I had in mind and ended up with this. I was also disappointed at the time that there was a dirty great fishing boat right in line of the shot, only to get home and decide that it's actually a really nice feature. What do I know?
Out of interest, for anyone who knows anything about seaweed - is it likely that the seaweed on this pipe will die down during a certain season? Wondering whether it's worth a revisit later in the year to get the shot I originally envisioned.

The mansions of Antartiko, near the North Macedonian and Albanian borders, are stunning examples of mud-brick vernacular architecture dating to the heyday of the village in the 19th through early 20th centuries, though the population has since plummeted. Some kind of renovation project appears to be underway in this derelict structure near the middle of town, but nobody was there to inquire about its purpose.
My sister had told me about a this amazing reclamation place in Wells which she thought we would enjoy photographing. Sometimes you visit places and they get all snippy about you taking photos but this place had a sign saying photographers welcome and asked that a donation was made to the local hospice which I thought was a wonderful idea. Phill had a field day taking photos of all the large statues. And it is the only place I am sure you will find a life sized cast iron bull standing next to a rocket launcher, complete with rocket!

This car was taken for a recreational spin and then abandoned to the flats by some young guys about ten years ago we were told, showing how much the sand/mud level has risen in that time...

WEEK 46 – Horn Lake OfficeMax Closing, Three-Year Anniversary
This shot is of the very back left corner of the store, which was left accessible so as to allow easy passage to the restrooms (still in the same place, of course!) and emergency exit at the rear of the building. That wall you see on the extreme right of the frame belongs to FFO's build-out, and if I remember correctly, it stretched even further out of view behind me – it was a pretty sizable stockroom. At least I *think* that's what it was being used for. It was either that, or as a saleroom for mattresses. A bit of a difference, I know! I wish I had a definitive answer for you guys. I really wanted to know at the time, and made a point to note what it was while I was here. But remember, this was in April, and today is November 19th, so unfortunately I don't remember :P
The “youth” sign you see here is indicative of how FFO's décor looks: simplistic and in harmony with its paint stripes on the walls.

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)
A strangler fig tree covers a brick prop for coal trolleys in the Utara mine ruins in Iriomote, Okinawa, Japan. Utara Mine, located at upstream of Utara River, was the biggest mine in Iriomote. The reduced demand and the drained recourses after WWII led to the closing of the mine, which was slowly swallowed by the jungle.
