2021 was a slight rebound in exploring for me from the past few years. Got a handful of really fun out of state trips in, met some really cool people, and got in some good local explores. I shot film and digital as usual but I haven't gotten any from this year scanned yet so o well.


This is only the second thread I've made this year so I'm compensating by going a little picture heavy.



I'll start with churches. I probably shot as many small backwoods churches this year as I have the last 4-5 years combined (and a couple not so small or backwoods).

On to some hospitals. Only one of my three attempts at various asylums this year was successful. I hope to reverse that this coming year.

My industrial explores this year really pale in comparison to what everyone else has (and will) be posting. It was mostly small, mostly empty warehouse shit, and to mix it up I explored a couple of big, mostly empty warehouse shit.

The electrical tunnels here were a pretty cool, asbestos fire proofed, water-logged find.

Houses aren't really my jam, but I splored some neat ones nonetheless. Some of these were flavour of the month a couple years ago.

I explored slightly fewer schools than in past years. The cops got called on our little exploring group at one early in the year. Thankfully it amounted to nothing more than being asked to leave.

Managed to get inside some buildings at a good sized campus I'd been watching for most of the past decade. Wasn't anything mindblowing but it was great to finally see (and always weird to explore a place with electricity and running window units).

And to finish the thread off here's some miscellaneous places. A few masonic temples, a state chemical/forensics lab, a barn, mixed use offices, and a car that's more interesting than most of the 300+ that Rando took pictures of this year 😂👌😂lololxd420REKT😂👌😂.

WHAT AN AMAZING YEAR.


I've always liked the different spice you find. Not the usual NE style bands.


Killing it.

Good stuff

I was lovin that Gran Prix but that Vdub takes the win. The hardwood floor from the basketball court was a beauty too.

Thanks for the eye candy!

Awesome collection! Those electrical tunnels in 30 and 31 are wild, straight up torture chamber material.

I like the Artsy ones... 60 and 65 do it for me! I would honestly frame 65. Love the old houses too! Maybe not your jam but i would take that jam on my toast lol along with that old warehouse along the tracts 71

Really fantastic year dude, hope we get to meet soon!

Corrrrr.

Still hope we can meet up at some point one of these days!

You never disappoint. Great to see what you've been up to!

Gorgeous shots; what a great set! Nice to see a couple of my favorite explore sites in here, too. #19...something about that surgical light; I recently found another just like it.
Anyway, thanks for sharing and I hope this new year brings you (and all of us) many more new, safe, and successful explores!

Another great year under your belt! Really nice work here.

Jesus really killer stuff and the Cow lived!!!

I want to get back to those offices!!!

Thanks all!

I've always loved the way you handle lighting. It's moody, but realistic, and it makes them very immersive.

Incredible stuff!

I can't wait to see your 2022 explorations!

Great collection and variety. I'm a sucker for churches and hospitals. Thank you for posting all these pics.
