I really wanted to enjoy this, but it's just photos out of context. I want the story behind the photo, too.

There used to be an abandoned section of railroad not too far from me, and before they ripped it out, it looked a lot like this. Walking it kind of gave me the creeps though, because you never know what's hiding up ahead.

I bet this place was really beautiful back in the day.

Oh my! All those books!

Such ornate work-sad to see it go to ruin.

This is what everywhere will be like when we’re gone.

I didn’t see him there initially

Where is this place? Is this the result of a flood or sea level rise?

Gorgeous! Such a waste.

To think that not terribly long ago, this was part of someone's house, I guess... they saw this every day.

Class is canceled today.

I can smell this photo. I've been in places that are similar to this, and the smell of rotting upholstery and mildew is something you can't forget.

That floor! This brings me Agatha Christie vibes... someone's done a mischief in the conservatory!

And the forest reclaims it.

The rotting curtain adds so much to the atmosphere of decay.

Danger is you middle name?

Gorgeous color

Chairs of antique luxury.

I know what they did in here....

I would love to salvage every bit of this woodwork.

House plant-very nice.

Who would leave these beautiful things!

wonder who would have this decor?

place your bets ladies and gentlemen

This looks fiendish...that table is going to give me nightmares.

Love ferns.

Any landing you can walk away from……

I think you should wear a hard hat in some of these... there are a lot of broken blocks on the floor.

These are making me sad. Such beautiful buildings left to ruin.

oh I would love to save the flooring !

It's the drapes that make it tragic, I think.

I can smell the musty, moldy air in this one.

The things they left behind troubles me... what happened? Where did they go? These are very evocative photos.

If you lift up the bottom mattress, you'll find a pea. There should be a princess around somewhere too.

Too bad these places aren't salvaged-so much beauty just left to rot.

The green algae is creeping along

Nice ceiling medallion amid the wreckage.

Losing battle.

Makes me wonder if most of these places were in country that fled during wartime?? Possibly places where the last of a family dies and no heirs to continue to live there? If only he could tell us what history he learned about these places. Pictures alone do not satisfy my curiosity- history of such, does....
