I’m also rather allergic to breaking the law, getting arrested, or otherwise doing something that puts me on the wrong side of the moral curve. Boy Scouts and all that.
But every once in a while, the appeal of this kind of photography gnaws at my imagination. So when I come across an empty building, a dead business, or any other example of poignant abandonment, I can’t resist the urge to record it somehow.
The smartphone-against-the-window trick comes in handy here.
It isn’t quite an urbex thing, but if it helps me remember the places no longer able to tell their own stories, then it’s a relatively minor risk I’m willing to take.
