Your pictures give me a feeling that I can’t describe. Odd but not unpleasant.

Thanks! I started out doing liminal space photography mainly, I've since branched out but I've tried to bring over the general feel from my earlier work into my newer photos as well.

Very cool. I’ve looked at some more of your pictures. I like the ones the most that have buildings but no people, and that have that strange, but not threatening, emptiness.

I appreciate it! They're definitely some of my favorites as well, especially my dead mall shots.

I can’t find those, do you have a link to them?

Thanks for the links, those are great! That first one is very sensory for me - I immediately hear the echoing emptiness of the space, and have the smell of that old linoleum in my nose.

The one with the three cubicles is very strange, one of those pictures that you have to wonder about for a while.

Malls, what a strange cultural artefact to be disappearing.
