Red face I really enjoy Rob Dobi's photography

I'm pretty big into urban exploration, even though I haven't had much of an oppurtunity to check out much for myself. I like browsing pages like infiltration.org, but almost all the photos posted are just amateurs with digicams. This guy put some serious effort into his photos and I think they are beautiful. They are from abandonded factories, hospitals and asylums in New England.

I would post the pictures directly but the site doesn't allow fucking linking.

BORING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The main problem I have is the size.
8.5 x 11?
Who the fuck wants to see those in 8.5 x 11?


I wanna see those in huge silver gelatin prints that take up a good 50sq. ft of space, in all their qualitious glory.

Yeah, I think it's because he is actually trying to make money from his pictures. Fuck that.

One of my favorites is the abandoned asylum with STAY CALM written on the wall in red. The pics of empty wheelchairs or medical equipment are cool too.
