| | | Ill do anything, back in the day I used to get teased for doing abandoned gas stations, and small houses, junk like that , but to me, if its abandoned, ill poke my head in... I also like abandoned stretches of road, train tracks, foundations in the wood, even caves are enjoyable if its empty, I consider it urbex... but i do a judgment call on things like freshly empty " for sale " locations.... I like the paint to be pealing a little..
For me urbex is about leaving the house and killing some hours doing something interesting

| | | For my part, I generally explore to see stuff that I don't think many other people will ever get to see. That's a really nonspecific definition, of course, and it can include historic architecture, awesome decay, anachronistic machinery, or anything else I think might be particularly photogenic, or might provide some sort of challenge. I don't really have much of a criteria beyond a gut feeling that a given location would be cool to check out. In the case of an abandoned supermarket, I would be a lot more interested if I knew that there were still checkout lanes, shelves, and merchandise left over than if I knew that it was just a big empty space. That's where research comes in handy, because you can learn a lot about what a place might have to offer as an abandonment by looking at what it was while active and the circumstances of its closure.

| | | When boredom hits, i'll check anything out (even an abandoned supermarket, gas station, etc., if access is easy enough.) There are no limits to exploring. If something seems interesting enough, it's worth checking out! If it turns out to be rather lame, it still beats sitting around bored, and you now know of a spot not to waste your time checking out in the future.
