this is a really cool group you guys have got here. Glad I found it.
I'm a freelance professional photog who has been shooting bits and pieces of urbex for years - Hando (I think?) and another guy (Dr Hatsumi?) use to send me photos of places a few years back and tease me about their locations but I had little kids back then and never had the time to explore.
Anyway, I'm getting back into it now. Done all the big Sydney haunts so looking for some I don't know.
Here's a coupla galleries of stuff I shot years back. Sorry about the HDR for those who are offended - it was the fashion of the day

I've been back to a couple of these sites since (the ones that haven't been knocked down) and it's been interesting document how fucked up they become as word spreads of their existence. Anyone who visited the Tram Sheds in the early days when the walls were covered in some really big cool graf pieces will know how much it sucked to see them tagged and ruined as it's popularity exploded.
Anyway, drop me a line of you wanna chat or exchange locations.
Cheers all.
