Industrial

Waves of Steel

Waves of steel partition off an ominous red glow.

Serrated

A serrated edge, cast in blue and red light.

STAINLESS

The grungy texture of this knife blade highlighted in shades of blue and red.

Yellow in Decay

Yellow paint chipping away, giving way to the rust underneath.

Bleeding Rust

Rust dripping down chipping paint.

Macro Points

Sharp points in close range, rusting and decayed.

Splintered

A screw splintering wood.

Captured Decay

As you probably know I've become a big fan of the semi-abstract shot of something in a state of decay. When I say the exhibit on trash collected from the Cahaba River I couldn't help myself.

Coilburn

Metal gate, rusting away.

Temporal Decay

Something I had hoped to capture a lot of at the furnace was a sense of decay. An old, supposedly haunted industrial site seemed like the perfect place to capture it. Of all the decay shots I tried this is the only one I ended up keeping.

Corrosive Decay

When I first looked at this picture I immediately was reminded of the aesthetics surrounding NIN's Downward Spiral album and I fell in love with the shot. It's messy, it's abrasive, parts of it almost hurt to look at, and yet I still find it beautiful.

Cold Burn

A rusty air conditioning unit.

Rainbow Rust

Rust and rainbows mixing together.

Light Never Looked So Dark

When I was first starting out with photography I developed a small obession with the lights in Olds Hall on the MSU campus. Even all these years later they're still some of my favorite photos.

Dark Clockwork

I love the look of machines. Industrial photography is one of my favorite types to look at and to shoot. The gears in this clock have amazed me since the first time I saw them.
