Lavoir à Charbon A – Pincer Action

It wasn’t all manor houses and hospitals on our recent tour of Italy. On the way we travelled through France and Luxembourg, stopping off at a rather tasty coke washing plant. This was an interesting one as the site that it is on is live with plenty of people around. thankfully we entered unnoticed and [...]
Reims – Iemza, Street Art

On the way back from Luxembourg we detoured through France to visit a derelict industrial compound that was due to be flattened. there were still a few buildings left, this one in particular held what we had come to see. The artist of the insect like beings is IEMZA. There’s a lot of work gone [...]

Grandes Moulins des Paris – Graff’d
Quick evening post tonight. I’ve seen a lot of totally awesome graffiti / street art in abandoned places. Some really intricate astounding pieces, both small and large with awesome placement, sympathetic to the surroundings. I’ve also see a lot of tagging – simple marker or paint sprays daubed and repeated all over the place in [...]
Grandes Moulins des Paris – Dont Look Down

Les Grandes Moulins de Paris – Potential Risk #2
This shot is from the other side of the previous image. again it gives a good impression of how trashed GMdP is. The long vacant space with all of the open crossing floor supports gave a great viewpoint and I knew exactly what I wanted to do with the image processing wise. I’m very happy [...]
Les Grandes Moulins de Paris – Potential Risk #1
This was the last location we visited on our Euro Tour and was on the way back to Calais for the ferry so it seemed rude not to pay a visit. We didn’t have very much time and calculated that we could only spend 1h 30m in the location. We did our normal external recce [...]
