There’s the example >>>>>>>>

  • On film.
  • Uses medium format cameras.
  • Explores the theory of vacancy vs abandonment.

<<<<<< Abandoned vs vacant

  • Is un-used the same as useless?
  • Does the owner care for the building?
  • Is the building really vacant?

More work is below.

The moment calls for meditation as much as action. I can press the shutter whenever I want.
