The church is the saddest thing. It tells a whole story all by it's self

Reminds me of Max Payne, for PS2.

Nagasaki looked better after being nuked as the place was flat out clean, this looks like Beirut after 10 years of civil war.
This is not exactly a way to attract tourists.
And do as the grafiti says: question everything.
Another moment of clarity. Planned future.

Gary isnt as dangerous as people make it out to be...

church is creepy. i heard two girls got raped in a church basement in Gary... could it have been that one?

When i looked at the church scene, i was thinking "where is your god now?"

@kage574 That is exactly what happened during the great depression! People left the midwest for california! Where do they go now? California is just as bad economically now.

@vanvanbluz its a combination of things but mainly economic downturns cause these places to become deserted like this. its sad
-
@kage574 what the hell, do people just leave, or are they kicked out by foreclosure?
-
@vanvanbluz plenty of spots like this all thru the midwest
Nice work. I'm working on a similar project, but I'd never go into any one of those buildings alone.

Yeah, I guess it's a little crazy. I have shot places in Chicago where I felt in danger...and I certainly felt in danger in Gary. I think next time I'll hire a bodyguard. But I can't stop shooting in those environments...they are simply too interesting. And now that I have video capability, it's even more interesting. :-)
