Things Falling Apart

Carl Sagan - Pale Blue Dot

The Pale Blue Dot (Full video)

Italian product manager and web designer Francesco Mugnai recently added a collection of images to his blog touting some of the most beautiful images of abandoned spots and modern ruins that he’d ever seen. The images Mugnai has captured come from empty castles, shuttered power plants, and dilapidated churches around the world. From a sunken yacht in Antarctica to a forever-closed amusement park in Japan, these images all make up a sort of anti-phoenix; rather than rising as new from the ashes, these husks remain preserved in decomposition, forcing viewers to confront the strange beauty of ruination.

Beautiful abandoned building I explored today in Montreal, with floors coated in ice and snow. On the second floor, figure skaters were practicing on the frozen surface. Photos taken and processed with iPhone 5. Apps: Snapseed, Lomora, PhotoForge 2.
