I am Janine, an outgoing English girl living in Manchester. I am a scientist, photographer, blogger and all-round geek. I am also a travel addict!I travel the world in search of abandoned relics and lost treasures. I have an insatiable drive to document these amazing decaying places, before they disappear forever. My goal is to always present images alongside historical write-ups. I think exploring the stories of these places gives important context to these images.Please click the "Contact" link to view my website/social media links, or contact me directly.

Absolutely a FANTASTICALLY WONDERFUL eye for photography! If you are the sole proprietor of Obsidian Urbex, I wish the best for you. May you break the bounds you've set in this series and succeed beyond your dreams. If you are one of many supporting Obsidian Urbex, I wish the best for you. May you break the bounds you've set in this series and forge your own path to the success and betterment of you dreams. I've no doubt that, if I were to wander around this same space, I would see nothing more than mundane. You've managed to capture beauty in the mundane. Thank you for this.

Wow V, I don't know what to say. I am humbled by your kind words of encouragement. I am indeed the sole photographer, all the works I post are my own that I have collected in my half a decade of exploring abandonment. Loads more to come, from my large backlog of unedited photos and (hopefully) new and exciting adventures I am yet to dream of <3

I am always divided when I see a decaying building. There is something beautiful about the way a building become reclaimed by nature, and gradually dissolves back into the earth. The other part of me is sad the history has been lost, and I wish more places were able to be saved.
