I was down in Kalamazoo today and got out for a few hours with my camera, I started off walking down the train tracks about a mile down is when I spotted this amazing warehouse!
I knew right then and there I would be spending the rest of my trip in this old place! There was photos to be found everywhere. To my surprise all the doors were open! JACKPOT!!!!
If you have seen some of my previous work you know I'm a fan of old grimy anything!
haha All together I spent around 2 hours or so exploring this old dank place and snapping tons of photos, overall this was one of the most enjoyable shoots i'v done in a while! I hope you all enjoy them. (:
After all that I was pretty exhausted from walking so far but it was 100% worth every step, I got some bomb photos and I had a good time. What more could you ask for? haha
Thank you all for stopping by and checking out my daily photography, I will see you all tomorrow for some more photo adventures and as always STEEM ON!
@samsiedenstrang, they are all so beautifully captured. Well, as always!

@samsiedenstrang, two hours well spend! I've got a nice tip for you; find a model willing to go the extra mile, bring her/him to this same place and be sure to be ready to stay 4 hours :)
Just one external flash unit and something you can use to bounce light off, lots of water, wine, fruit and a little bluetooth speaker and if you know a vapor inhaling human, bring along for some nice effects.
We will await the results with buckets of popcorn for sure!

This is amazing. A lot of stories told in this set of pictures. And the B&W theme really emphasized the aged structures.

We Shoot Differently When Choosing Black And WhiteMost photographers ask when should a photograph be converted to black and white. Rarely is the discussion around why a photograph should be black and white from the outset, and that’s fascinating. While the “when” and “why” are related, shooting in color and then wondering whether to convert the image employs a very different mindset from setting out and seeing the world in black and white, and then working within those confines. Parameters of a world without color forces you to see things differently, to stretch and work out your photographic eye muscles, and that in turn pushes you creatively (at least in my experience it has).

Well I agree that it is a good excercise for the eye to focus into find the meaning of what the picture is trying to share without the guidelines of colors (at least that what I just got from yours).

what beatuful abandoned place you found, and the black and white photos looks amazing, i think if where a place abandoned people should took some parts and reciclyng for continued usesfull i see a lot of thing that could be uses again, as a part of motors, i think.
but well i think you feel an alone sensation when you visit this place, imagine how much investment are abandoned there.
well happy day.
