I am intrigued about why you tend to lean towards the dilapidated and rundown. The texture is cool but one can't constantly shoot texture. What is it about you that makes you seek out this environment Mr. Spirer?
They don't let me in the nicer places. Just ask Robert Earnest about that.
Seriously, I like the feeling of history that is in the places. These places are almost always filled with history. There's human history in the walls, the floors, the doors, the windows, and that's what I like about them. When I look around the area I live, it's almost antiseptic. New buildings are everywhere. Old buildings are re-faced. Walls are covered with new walls. It's as if no-one wants to remember.
