urban exploration.

(A control panel at yorkshire chemicals.)

In recent months i have gained a growing interest for urban exploration.

The hobby revolves around accessing old abandoned buildings, and having a good look around somewhere that is supposed to be "out of bounds".

You can find some strange things in some buildings, such as an abandonded funeral parlour in a mill at greenfield, or a veritable lake in the old wakefield ABC cinema. All of this makes the hobby more fascinating.

Most urban explorers have ethics as well. They do not break and enter or vandalise properties, the aim being to try and capture the places in high standard photography.

Access to the buildings is usually created by Britains burgeoning "chav" culture or copper theives etc and not the explorers themselves. On the point of access i would like to point out that trespass is not a criminal offence and if asked to leave then it is worth doing so to avoid problems.

I hope that gives people a brief insight into what it is all about, you can regularly find me on http://www.28dayslater.co.uk
