Introduction!

Hi all, my name is Ben. I'm 18 years old and from the Sutherland Shire, and I have been into Urban Exploraton for well over a year now. I am a striving photographer, I bring my camera with me every time I visit an old place. I mainly love exploring buildings, my favourite has to be hospitals. I also love finding new spots, travelling around is very fun and you see alot of different things

I'm known around my area as the guy who goes to creepy places and takes photos

I am not a professional but I do take the aspect of my photos seriously, I sell canvas prints to whoever is interested, and I have a Facebook page with over 600 likes (Mainly people who live around the area and think what I do is cool). My page will be somewhere in my profile if that is allowed.

Anyway, that's pretty much me summed up, I joined this forum to meet some fellow explorers, share and see other photos, and be a part of the community

Thanks for reading!

Welcome.

Great shots, I particularly like the dam shots. There are some great old hospitals around, let me know when your out next, if you don't mind a pair of tag alongs.

Yes, nice shots. I see you also have the obligatory lonely chair shot.

Welcome Ben, have you been in Caringbah High School?

Scarecrow · 26 May 2013, 8:48 pm

Isn't that burnt out?

Not sure crane I haven't done it, just driven past it a few times

Everyone loves a chair shot!

. And yes hatboy I have explored the high school, I have a set of photos that I have yet to put on Flickr from there. The hall was burnt down recently but the main building and woodwork rooms are still there. Pretty good explore but all the graffiti and underage teens who go in there and destroy it just puts me off. Worth a visit but only 1 or 2 times is enough I reckon.

Welcome to UEGA!

Chair shots, everyone needs one of those.
