You should set up in Hollywood as a locator of sets for action-adcenture movies. ...Seriously, you have done a fine job of documenting and artistically rendering an important sign of our times. Too bad voting had expired by the time I got to this gallery.

Barbara Heide		01-Jan-2010 12:20
brillant collection! v

Mangles Photography		04-May-2009 03:31
Fantastic Gallery

Guest		25-Feb-2009 03:26
i see here a real nice ideas and amazing collections of photos and angels and colors and exposure's really lovely gallery well done .v

Clem		11-Jul-2008 03:52
What a fine group of pictures even though some are spooky. I can almost see Freddy Krueger lurching in abandoned corridors.

Eldar Kadymov		07-Jul-2008 02:38
Outstanding accomplishment coupled with great presentation ! V

Brian		10-Apr-2008 01:07
What a great group of pictures.. wonder if anyone could help me out.. I am looking to take a few pictures of some old mills in the North South Carolina area when I am down ther and would love to know some locations of a few of these pics if any are in that area.. thanks

Guest		30-Dec-2007 05:50
Excellent is an understatement. This gallery is museum quality as is much of the subject matter. It definitely arouses mixed emotions. I hope its more nostalgia for the past than an ominous portent for the future.

Daniel L. Berek		14-Jul-2007 04:00
The theme of abandoned buildings and machinery has always fascinated me. Your pictures are the nicest I have ever seen of this genre. Thanks for sharing them!

Greg McGrath		22-Apr-2007 23:45
I particularly liked the old boardwalk over the swamp.

Jolene Bean		07-Mar-2007 01:51
What a wonderful collection of images.

Terry		17-Feb-2007 16:29
What an absolutely wonderful talent and collection of work. Everything from hauntingly evocative to surreally futuristic. It's a pleasure to see what you do, and an honor to know the excellent man that you are behind these many, many talents.

Barbara Read and Fred Schaad		09-Dec-2006 18:55
Wonderful collection! Good job! V

Guest		09-Dec-2006 02:30
This is an amazing gallery! Nice job.

tomr-photos		28-Sep-2006 04:26
I like to wander through the recent galleries and sometimes I find some real gems. This is one of the more interesting galleries I've visited on pbase. It may not be a gallery of "pretty" pictures but it is totally fascinating. There is a gripping sense of presence you've captured that I can actually feel. Good grief, I can practically smell the old with some of those pics! It appears you chose the right kind of light for these, too. Excellent work. GMV

carlos David		30-Aug-2006 13:19
Very, very, very great gallery

kyoung kim photography		28-May-2006 06:14
great gallery!

Guest		29-Mar-2006 22:42
Nice work. I love these old deserted buildings. Heres a few shots that I've collectedhttp://www.pbase.com/psowicki/industrial_waste

Guest		04-Mar-2006 03:28
Roy, I just saw "Boiler Room" over on Photo.net and love it. Great work, great portfolios. You really capture the essence of these old places and things. What part of the US are you from if you don't mind me asking?

URIAH BARNES		18-Jan-2006 05:11
really nice photos, they have a real 30's 40's harsh, industrial look. good work!

Guest		06-Jan-2006 14:04
Excellent gallery. Gets my vote.

Guest		04-Jan-2006 08:23
An excellent body of work which documents some of the social history of the area and the changes in fourtune of industry. Good work I enjoyed your portfolio very much. Ian

Guest		24-Dec-2005 01:48
Simply fantastic! All of them....

Richard Cobby		17-Dec-2005 15:10
Wow! what a gigantic gallery of superb images. All so well chosen and seen with a very creative mind. I love the moody, muted colours so full of atmoshpere. Thanks for sharing and you certainly deserve a vote. Happy Christmas - Greetings from Northampton, UK

Jean-Yves		17-Dec-2005 12:35
Thank you very much for this awesome gallery !

Jakob Ehrensv�rd		17-Dec-2005 00:55
Awesome...

Ron Horloff		15-Dec-2005 22:58
A fascinating study, with excellent composition. Well done! Ron

Guest		15-Dec-2005 12:55
Roy: What a fascinating group of photos! You have an excellent eye. Of particular interest to me personally were several pics of old boilers and steam generators as I have worked in that industry for 35 years. I might have helped design some of those! Again, fine work. I will vote. Tom Bower

Richard Calmes		14-Dec-2005 01:39
Everything was state-of-the-art once! Makes you think! Excellent gallery! GMV

Guest		13-Dec-2005 18:50
This is a fantastic gallery, I have watched every single wonderful shot and enjoyed them all so much. I am glad that you saved these places for the future this way. Here where I live in Sweden most old factories are gone for environmental reasons, too bad in one way... You have a good eye and I am looking forward to see more!

Richard Cobby		12-Dec-2005 12:27
All very strong images - I particularly love the muted colours almost like those found on a fild set. This gets mu vote for a very original gallery, well seen and well presented. Greetings from UK

Wendy & Larry Burke		11-Dec-2005 19:26
Cool , gets my vote love the use of light and texture , very nice

Robert Socha		11-Dec-2005 05:59
Great gallery. Amazing number of interesting and well composed shots. Vote.

sam wyman		29-Nov-2005 17:21
Are the majority of your photos in N.C.? If so I'm moving there asap. I'll be there from the 26th to the 31st of december, I'll be sure to bring my camera. Thanks for sharing your work.

Dave Thomas		09-Aug-2005 19:56
What a fantastic collection of work. You have combined great technical skill with the eyes of an accomplished artist. Thanks for sharing these photos. Dave T http://www.pbase.com/dw_thomas

Mark Kenned		02-Aug-2005 02:38
It's amazing that you have been able to bring out such a haunting beauty in such a mess of industrial ugliness. Have you though about publishing a book? I know that sounds funny seeing you have put your images on the net, but I really think a collection of these photo's in a book would capture people's attention.

Terry Schultz		24-Jul-2005 23:58
More excellent images! I really like the maze of bricks, and the windows that are backlit. And of course the tricycles, and the industrial work, and the .... everything.

Jack Wilkinson		19-Jul-2005 13:22
Looks great but needs more nudity and violence.

Ronald Gale Johnson		19-May-2005 02:49
What beautiful, natural (not oversaturated) colors. Wonderful gallery.

Guest		12-Apr-2005 02:18
Wow, this is a nice gallery!

Guest		07-Mar-2005 00:34
wow, your work is amazing, and you see the beauty in things most people would never notice.. thanks for sharing :)shannon

Emmie Gray		06-Mar-2005 04:52
Wow, I feel as though I've been visiting the 1940's. Amazing, as a whole and individually. EG

Terry		08-Feb-2005 02:09
Wow. I see strength and authority coming in. Also - you need to do more portraits!!

Terry		09-Jan-2005 04:15
Absolutely wonderful. I keep seeing new things, even in the pictures I've looked at before, and enjoy them all. Thanks again!

Dave Wyman		05-Dec-2004 01:09
Terrific gallery of the passing of an American era. Dave

Guest		10-Nov-2004 18:35
Excellant images! Great to look at! would like to see more of tour work soon! Mac UK

Randy		30-Oct-2004 22:03
One of the most talented people I've ever met in so many ways. A human cornucopia. Wonderful imagery. Thanks, Roy, and keep GOING!

Guest		30-Oct-2004 09:12
I went back again, i knew i shouldn't, but i did and i'm exhausted...too much pleasure all at once...i shouldn't say it, but i think you've given me Tourette's or something...this gallery is like sex for the eyeballs, so many wondrous images! I think i mentioned once or twice that you must live in texture heaven, but i'm wondering now if you're not some mad chemist you goes round corroding everything in advance ;) Stunning, truly, and moving too...all this decay is our by-product, and you capture the tragic beauty of it wonderfully! Big, big (and very sad) fan!

Guest		30-Oct-2004 07:27
Fab gallery...wonderful eye for the beauty in decay. A really visceral treat for the eyes...awesome, will be back!!!

Mister Max		26-Oct-2004 03:03
As others have said, you have a very good eye for detail. - Max

Guest		26-Aug-2004 01:11
Awesome gallery!

Enchantment Studio		18-Aug-2004 23:20
Roy, you have a great eye for detail and seem to have an endless supply of subjects, keep up the great work. I'm very impressed

Gayle P. Clement		05-Aug-2004 02:53
Great textures! Excellent gallery.

Guest		10-Mar-2004 00:45
Texture, texture, texture, texture, texture, texture, !!!! My fingers were twitching on the mouse just imagining, awesome shots Roy! John :)

Scott Creader		27-Jan-2004 04:40
Fabulous pics, Roy! These are pics I wish I would had taken. Congrats :)

Terry Schultz		25-Jan-2004 19:54
I can't even begin to choose which "one" is my favorite. I love the unique perspectives combined with the subtle colors, in particular. But then, I'm also drawn to some of the vibrant images as well... It's excellent!

Pam Wakefield		18-Jan-2004 05:22
Wow! Way to go Brother in Law! This is just great! Being a lover of "old Junk" makes this site simply a "treat" for my eyes! Ben is constantly checking your site for new pics! Keep up the good work.....

Guest		02-Jan-2004 22:41
OHHH I love this – patterns, lines, color, rust – like it all.

Guest		31-Dec-2003 02:36
Good eye. I enjoyed browsing. Keep it up. S

Guest		10-Nov-2003 10:42
I usually don't like the school of 'artistic macro photography' but I'll make an exception for your gallery.

Guest		19-Oct-2003 16:45
A great demonstration of G3, with an experienced photographer http://www.photozo.com

Guest		13-Oct-2003 22:19
Now this is my kind of gallery to visit! Love the variety. Nice job. You might like mine:http://www.pbase.com/wtraub/_my_eyes http://www.pbase.com/wtraub/abandoned Enjoyed the visit. – Waynette

Guest		12-Oct-2003 04:23
Good work!I really love your photos.I think we have the same taste about taking photos. You can visit my galleries if you like. www.pbase.com/nicole_keifer

Guest		10-Oct-2003 08:29
Excellent work, you have the eye to see and extract the details we not always see around us, great colors and aspect of materials, we feel the textures: thanks ! :)

Guest		10-Oct-2003 04:28
Excellent work, fine art quality. Congratulations!

modlang		09-Oct-2003 19:07

Well seen - from another fan of old rubbish and rusty bits and peices

Dave Corn		06-Oct-2003 14:05
An outstanding collection of work. Of particular interest are the humorus pieces such as Final Notice and Muffler shop.

Guest		05-Oct-2003 18:34
Absolutely outstanding! I was very impressed by the quality of these photos.

Chuck Hall		05-Oct-2003 18:07
Very impressive work. You have certainly demonstrated that it is the photographer behind the camera that is important. :-) Interesting how some see where others are completely oblivious. I like the detail, texture, color, and mood in near dark. Keep up the good work. Chuck

R McBee		04-Oct-2003 00:58
This is a remarkable collection. Kudos.

Libragrrrl		01-Oct-2003 03:41
great gallery:) i particularly like "final notice"

POMAH		15-Sep-2003 23:22
Great macro shots. The level of detail you've been able to achive with a G3 is impressive.

Terry Schultz		15-Sep-2003 10:55
These are neat. Beautiful color, and I especially like the images of the Old Salem iron plate against the brick (it reminds me of details on your pottery), and the horizontal gravestone. Keep working!!
