So yeh, for my tech work this Summer we were asked to do a 20 picture documentary book based on anything you want.
For my book, I shot one of the best things I love to shoot, old, derelict, runned down buildings.
So, I thought I would upload my 20 pictures to show you, and once I get the book and see what it’s like, well, you
never know, I could make some more!
All these pictures are in order to what they are in the book. They are also H (high) D(dynamic) R (range) shots.

And at the end of the book I used this quote.
“But the dream is never forgotten, only put aside and never out of reach: Where once the dream connected boys with the world of men, now it reconnects men with the spirit of boys.”
John Thorn
