@FC-I think there's something really beautiful about decay, I don't know why. I love the one of the church with the single chair, it's great. -

@FC - Is Detroit full of abandoned places, or are you just good at hunting the decaying stuff down? -
@thewaltonsare: I agree! I've always loved the character abandoned places like this possess. There always seems to be some life left behind after the people have moved out.
@Ken Miller: At its height, Detroit was a city of 1.8 million people. Wikipedia lists the current population (as of 2009) at 910,920. It has a 29% unemployment rate. In some areas, something like 60-70% of the buildings are vacant. The city sees around 500 arson related fires a month. For more info on the fire aspect, check out this BURN trailer: http://vimeo.com/13184388 . Johnny Knoxville also did a series for Palladium on Detroit which focuses on the creative community that's been growing on the rebound, urban exploration and more here: http://www.palladiumboots.com/exploration/detroit -

@FC - I checked out the Johnny Knoxville Palladium film: I knew that Detroit wasn't the city it used to be, but I didn't know the full extent of its decline. How come the federal government didn't step in the save some of those buildings, like the train station? When a post apocalyptic movie needs shooting I'm surprised the film crews don't just zip over to Detroit to shoot the film! -

After years of talking about it, I finally got into a studio in the past few weeks.
I think I'm going to need to do this again soon.
And if you're curious, there's more in this set. Fair warning that these may not be entirely work-safe. -
@CinnamonandSpite: Thanks!
These are a little heavy on the post-processing, but here goes:
