My eye is always drawn to what your eye sees in long hallways, tunnels, and the like. So those are my favorites here. Maybe because I want to explore them, but in reality, I would afraid of those long ghost walks.
Your photos and story truly resonate with me. Both are lovely.
I’ve been attracted to shooting repurposed buildings ever since we moved to a suburb on the border of Chicago’s west side. Most structures and storefronts along the east/west arteries have been resurrected as houses of worship. My son was still attending school in the city and it was a feast for the eyes. Now the area is on the precipice of urban development. I wish I’d been more committed to taking photos in the beginning. Most were done on the fly with my iphone. Many buildings have been razed.
Thank you. I did an entire series of photos on a corner in NYC where the buildings were being torn down, and have since been replaced by two multiple story hotels. It was a line of mom and pop shops on a highly desirable (at least for developers) piece of property. I might try to dig that up at some point.
Good outcome, but I bet your hair stood on end.
It most certainly did...

Depth in photography has always intrigued me, and I'm always up for a long ghost walk.

That would be great!
