Industrial ruins, a delightful mixture of shapes and shadows. Some look like faces; some look like animals. What shapes and forms does your unique imagination see in these scenes?

The ruins of Falcon Works, located in Hanley (Stoke-on-Trent, England).

Demolition work started on this Grade II Listed building last year. Soon after, work was halted while investigations were done due to concerns the historic kiln had been damaged.

🎒 Abandoned rollercoasters from around the world! Once excited, screams filled the air. Now they are rusting and silent.

Do you love rollercoasters, or are they not your idea of fun?

A beautiful abandoned ballroom in Georgia, built during the Soviet period. There are tales that Joseph Stalin himself danced on the polished wooden floors here on more than one occasion.

🧸 There is something about a children’s teddy bear, left alone in an abandoned place. This one I found inside an abandoned chateau in France, patiently waiting for his owners to return.

Let’s name them! What do you think they are called?

πŸ†•πŸ›οΈ A few years ago, I explored the Old Royal High School in Edinburgh, Scotland. For 140 years it served as a grammar school. Later in the 1970s, it was re-fitted to become the future house of Scottish Parliament. The impressive building was never used and sat abandoned for decades.

Now, it is under renovation to become a music event space.

Full feature live Sunday 8 pm (UK), where I share photos of the buildings’ prior to renovation.

The ruins of a Buzludzha, a communist monument perched atop an icy mountain in Bulgaria.

I was lucky enough to visit before work began and photograph it in its abandoned state. The climb in was very dangerous; I almost gave up but was so pleased I conquered my fears!
