Hey, /p/! I want to share my photos and also some stories. I will write as I go.
It has been a while since I made photos. I never looked up anything technical and just did whatever I wanted. I saw photography as a means to express my, well, hurt teenage soul. That is probably the right way to express it. My life wasn't going very well and I needed a way to release those feelings. I had already done that through stories and music but photography seemed a nice fit. So I took my camera, a horrible thing that made blurry images and stripes everywhere, and went into abandoned building complexes, like military barracks, hospitals, all kinds of ruins devoid of people and in the process of being reclaimed by nature.
Since my camera was shitty I thought I had no choice but to digitally "enhance" the images. Which boiled down to lay digital filter upon filter onto the images. At the time I liked the resulting images. Later I felt stupid for doing that. Later again I thought of them as charming since they represented more feelings than photographic talent. I'm thinking of the images as a kind of expressionism. I often even accompanied the photos with expressionist poems.
I will share the photos for pure nostalgia's sake and because a lot of them are actually interesting because of the motives.
This one is from an abandoned hospital - which would later become well known for a murder that happened there in the 2000's - near Berlin. It has three rooms for surgery that are connected via those little windows or holes.

One time I went there I found a glass with a red liquid in there. I liked to think of it as real blood but in reality the location was often used for horror photo shoots. So on that day someone else probably had had some fun there before I arrived.

What I liked most about the hospital was its elevator. It had become stuck in the topmost level of the building. From the basement you could crawl through the metal scraps of wheelchairs and hospital beds and look upwards to see it hanging way up there.

This one I took with my very first digital camera. The resolution as bad and there were stripes everywhere and whatnot.
Interestingly, someone used the picture for a "When you see it" gif that I still sometimes see on the chans.

Right across my street was a moderately sized military complex with barracks and some buildings containing kitchens, bathrooms and the likes. As a kid I went there. Then, later, it would become the place where I took my first photos. It was some kind of man-made and overgrown desert right in town. I felt like an alien visitor there. I knew the place but there was always danger connected to it. It was not uncommon to run into groups of people trying to beat you up or simply to walk into "natural" hazards like glass shards, nails or collapsing floors.
>>3053933
I felt limited by my equipment but transforming the photos into painting-like nightmares that captured my feelings at the time felt liberating.
>>3053934
During that time people would often tell me my pictures looked like out of Silent Hill or SAW. Until then I hadn't even heard of those. I had just taken what was the closest thing I could photograph and then let my imagination do its work.
Of course, when I later played Silent Hill and watched SAW I did see the obvious aesthetic connection.
>>3053935
Sometimes the decaying buildings would produce very beautiful motives. In my years of wandering in those places I never moved something to a different place or destroyed something on purpose. I only took photos of the things as they were. All I did was putting filters on the images and then give them a framing through the title and the accompanying poems.
you talk too much.
>>3053937
There was a lot of nature in those places as well. There is no tranquility like the peace after humans have lost a busy place. This is what the years after the apocalypse must feel like.
>>3053938
Oh, shut up, you!
>>3053939
During a trip to a gas plant and a tank factory the camera completely fucked up and at home all I could do was "salvage" the photos through heavy color editing.
>>3053938
But what I really wanted to say was: Thanks for being here, my dude.

I had a thing for strong contrasts and the color red.
This photo was taken beneath the hospital in a tunnel connecting two of the buildings. We hadn't prepared for this and our only light was my camera display.

How old were you?
They're not that bad. They remind me of some pictures that emos would've post in myspace.

I must've been 18 or 19 (ten years ago). So I had SOME life experience and at least a sliver of knowledge what is okay or not. I'm not posting the ones where I overdid it with writing on the picture. I didn't do a lot of those and only later but I quickly realized it was just shitty. I also was somewhat "goth" back in the day which influenced the pictures.

the first pictures, with the older camera, were awesome. The last ones weren't so interesting. I really dig the lo-fi style you got from the digital polaroid. The PP fit well too.

Yeah. The oldest ones contain most of my favorites as well. I can post some more.

fantastic set mate, thanks for sharing.
Do you have a website or anything?
these are actually fantastic, i love the old early digital nostalgic vibe. Not only that, but some of these are very well composed
