The infamous power plant. My trip was pretty much a comedy of errors. My camera's a banged up ol' gal and kept freezing when taking photos, ultimately lost about 25 shots. Security drives by, pays no attention to me and my friend since we're "just girls" so we clearly wouldn't be up to no good

Found the perfect point of entry and suddenly I heard the sounds of yelling, and someone from inside threw a metal object out the window and it landed about 20 feet from where I was, along with broken glass from the window. Me and my friend decided we didn't want to make any new "friends" so we stayed outside. Lastly a motion sensor went off but by then we didn't give a damn and headed back home.

Going to try again as soon as I can, since I am in the know as a preservationist about what is going to happen to the place, within the next year it is supposed to be sealed off for development. If you guys wanna go, get in while you still can!

Really nice shots! I'd say #4 is my favorite, but they're all well done. Looks like an interesting site.
