Church on the Outskirts

This decrepit little church once rested on the fringes of Pittsburgh’s Polish Hill. It was demolished not long after these images were taken. I used an Agfa B&W film with an ASA of around 25 so that I could do long exposures and get the motion blurs of the trees…the images were later sepia toned to enhance the other-worldly appearence. I managed to salvage a few of the arched window panes for use in possibly making some assembleges.

Church on the Outskirts belongs to the following groups:

Dilapidated Buildings, Eerie Lighting, Experimental, Film Photography, Parallel Dimensions, Sepia-Toned, Timelapse/Long Exposure Photography and Underground USA

    Loramae, you are most welcome…I used to teach Photography in Pittsburgh, I guess it’s still kinda ingrained (no pun intended)...:)
