Four of my favorite spots n' shots out on the road exploring over the last year, taken on my Nikon D750.

It would. It's just in a rough economic area in town.

Mr. P. Explores @mrpexplores.bsky.social · 2h

You're not wrong.

Mr. P. Explores @mrpexplores.bsky.social · 2h

I'm going to try and post more often. Sometimes I just don't have the energy after a day of teaching.

Indeed it was...

Same thing it always is. Population moved out when the economy got bad.

Mr. P. Explores @mrpexplores.bsky.social · 2h

Not Hough, no. THAT one is in REALLY bad shape.

Mr. P. Explores @mrpexplores.bsky.social · 2h

Hard to tell. But definitely a few years!

Mr. P. Explores @mrpexplores.bsky.social · 2h

Pictures don't do it enough justice!

Awww, thanks so much for sharing! Hope you enjoyed it! I have a new episode coming out, perhaps tonight or tomorrow!

Mr. P. Explores @mrpexplores.bsky.social · 2h

Not too shabby. Still getting out there and seeing as much as I can!

Mr. P. Explores @mrpexplores.bsky.social · 2h

Oh yes! Quite ornate!

Inside the magnificent infrastructure of the Colonel Ward Pumping Station in Buffalo, New York. One of the main pumping stations that brings water to the municipal grid, this Beaux-Arts masterpiece was opened in 1915 and is still in partial operation today.

It's been a rough year...

Mr. P. Explores @mrpexplores.bsky.social · 1d

Thanks. It's just been...surreal? Watching everything slowly collapse?

Mr. P. Explores @mrpexplores.bsky.social · 1d

Inside the slowly moldering ruins of an abandoned church somewhere on the backstreets of Buffalo, New York. This place had amazing stained glass and that warm vibe that one gets from light filtering through such windows...

I haven't been posting much as of late. Things have seemed very...lackluster and ominous. With all that is going on in the world and especially here in the US, the anxiety and depression levels are at an all time high. Hard to create art and be as social as one would like with that hanging above...

Thank you for the share!

I would agree with that. The country lost a lot of its innocence after that...not that some of what happened didn't need to happen. Civil Rights was very important.

Inside a decades long abandoned industrial bakery in Cleveland, Ohio, that was later used as a storage warehouse for decades more before its final closing. The history here was thick; every corner told a story...
