Urban Decay or Urban Exploration is the exploring of urban (mostly) abandoned structures. The photographer Ben Schreck engaged for years with the subject decay and the beauty in it. The following photos show a cross section of his work from the abandoned places. Insights into the present of the past. From dark shafts in old mines, from bizarre sceneries in derelict houses and castles, surreal-looking industry and unique photos from the Maginot Line out of the second World War.

More about the photography from Ben on his website www.explorerviews.de. All rights of the photos goes to its owner, © Copyright Ben Schreck, who gave exclusive right to use it on our webpage.
