One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Snuck into a bunch of different abandoned buildings, warehouses, bridges, etc. Favorite one was the an abandoned grain terminal in bk, full of amazing old machinery, crazy graffiti, some extraordinary views and other incredible sights (also some fun climbing was involved). Friend of mine made a lovely photo project of it.
