A beacon in the smog


I particularly enjoyed the first blog, 500px, and its post on urban exploration. The focus on finding man made structures that nature has taken back is very intriguing. Nature is all around us and at times we forget that we are intertwined with it in our everyday life. I think these photos prove that no matter how much concrete we lay or brick we stack, mother nature will always take back what is rightfully hers.
I hope to find some areas in Oklahoma where structures like these are present, dilapidated ruins of what once was taken back by what is to be. I think this blog, 500px, is great. However, I wish it was a dedicated blog to urban exploring, where as this is just one post on a blog that photographically encompasses so much more.
