The_Monocle's photostream  

I'm a photo newb, who likes to explore and shoot pictures in modern abandoned ruins, or Urban Exploration as it is commonly refered to. I have a Canon 20D which I purchased used, as a starter camera while I learn more about proper photography technique. I also often employ a Casio Elixim point and shoot and a Cingular 8125 Windows PC phone with a cell cam to take pictures during unplanned explorations. As a previous graffiti "artist" I am naturally drawn to graffiti covered walls, decaying buildings and the sense of both self expression and rebellion that comes with shooting pictures in these types of environments.
