I hope you liked them. The ones from Batavia were taken 4/2/2009. It was really nice out today. Obviously I edited them, But I hope that doesn't hurt the photography end of it?

Cool, but a sad commentary on industry in upstate towns.

all of western ny is pretty much abandoned. I feel silly taking photos of the good parts of the cities now because there isn't much left.

Good stuff. I explored some stuff in Lockport last summer, it was quite interesting. I love getting down into the Buffalo, Lockport, Rochester area for some exploring. Lots of good stuff down there.

Interesting set!

Nice pictures. I'm glad that you're spreading out into other places in western New York. I bet there are other interesting places in other canal towns, or maybe the Southern Tier.

I like the second picture the most. It reminds me of the cover of "Physical Graffiti".

Love your spin on grit.
