Modern Ruins - Collection #1 (40 photos)

A collection of photos I found on a forum (sauce below). And because there are too many of them I`m gonna make a series, based on the best photos on that forum. The collections includes every type of urbex photo (at least I think so), satisfying all your exquisite tastes. It generally includes everything this blog is about.

Old abandoned cars in decay

Rust? Yes, thank you! These cars were once the pride of the company that made them and the people that owned them. Then they were replaced by new cars, and thus forgotten. It will be weird for me to grow old and see that the best cars out there now, will be also forgotten in decay, left to rust later. As a live example of my statement, stand the sports cars in the post (we`ve got an abandoned Ferrari, abandoned Porsche, abandoned Jaguar, abandoned Corvette, and an abandoned Mustang). I`ll begin with an old car, but one that I would totally restore and use, because it`s still a cool car, the Mustang. Yes, a decaying Mustang, sad ain`t it? To be honest, I would restore many of these cars, I love the classics, but money is an issue nowadays.
If you need info on one of the cars feel free to leave a comment.

Black & White doctor`s clinic ruin

You go to the doctor and think "I`m getting fixed", and you do get fixed most of the times. But not in this particular clinic you don`t. It`s a pretty creepy place I found while randomly surfing the innets (as I always do in my spare time) that deserves a place on HIAT. I can only try to imagine the feeling that the explorers who walked into the rooms of this derelict building had. The weird feeling that you get watching these photos comes from the darkest part of our subconsciousness .. and from horror films, because it`s not only an abandoned building, it`s an abandoned doctor`s clinic, where they would use tools to cut you up and such. Well now that I have created an image into your minds, enjoy the photos!

Abandoned trains and railroads

Thanks to some unknown and strange reason, for the last few weeks I have been dreaming about trains and train stations, almost everyday. It wouldn`t bother me for my subconscious to do so, but not so often, and not without me knowing why. Maybe it`s because I relive a trauma, maybe it`s because I haven`t traveled by train for the last 2 years, or maybe my brain is just saying "Dude post some more on HIAT, you kinda ignored it lately". Well, that`s about fair, I got caught up with other projects lately and have abandoned (ironic ain`t it?) the blog. But here I am to post some photos of trains and railways, derelict trains and railways that is. Maybe this is what my brain needs to stop making me dream all them weird stuff. So, without further ado, here are some random photos I found in google, especially for you rust loving freaks.

Deserted Hospitals

When you think of a hospital you usually get two feelings. The first one is that you wish to go there as rare as possible, and the other thing is you imagine that hospitals are clean and tidy, like they should be. Now this is not always true, sadly, because in some cases the hospitals are insanitary (mostly in third world countries), as a hip-hop band said about Romania "Others have cleaner streets than we have hospitals" - rough translation. 

But this post, like this whole blog, is not about badly administered things, but about places that are not administered at all. So here are some photos of derelict hospitals .. look at the bright side, there are no doctors in these!

Asama Japan Volcano Museum

What`s this odd looking building you ask? Well it`s a museum, in Japan, near a volcano! And it`s abandoned, but the light are still on ..

Wall able abandonment - Collection of 15 free wallpapers of the forgotten

Suddenly I realized people love wallpapers, especially me. So I made a collection of 15 desktop wallpapers relevant to this blog, that I personally love. Sizes go from 1024x768 to 3269x2128, pretty decent I`d say.

H.I.A.T Wallpaper

Someone made this thing for the blog, it`s kinda nice, don`t know exactly what it means but I suppose it would be an urbex explorer that definitely tries to explore the unexplorable. So, if there are any H.I.A.T fans out there, you can use this as a wallpaper.

Also this guy has some photoshop skills, if you need them ask for his contact by sending us an e-mail.

Zombie Playgrounds

While randomly surfing on the innets, looking for anything that catches the eye, I came across a nice MMO, with zombies! So that's when I realized that zombies love abandoned places, it`s their home actually. And who is building homes for zombies? We are, of course!

Now moving on and leaving the jokes about the undead behind, you really should see, I mean really see, what we leave behind, while trying to get a new life, a new environment, the old environment becomes history and we let nature do everything.

But beware, after leaving these places, there is no coming back. Remember, there`s zombies living there now! Oh, and graffiti artists wondering about, but they`re the good guys.

Unlivable environment is alive

I just received received two photos from someone who cares about Giurgiu. It pictures an environment that was originally meant for families, by the ex communist leader. Well what happened is he died and these two buildings were never quite finished. But that was no problem for the homeless, so they moved in. Some of them are living here for over 2 decades. And I have to say, they sure love TV!

The decay of winter

Just a fine piece of photography I found randomly surfing the net. It`s really expressive, so I thought it deserves to be the first photo on my blog in 2011.
